https://www.theregister.com/2023/06/15/amazon_echo_disabled_... > ...an Amazon spokesperson said, "We work hard to provide customers with a great experience while also ensuring drivers who deliver Amazon packages feel safe. In this case, we learned through our investigation that the customer did not act inappropriately, and we’re working directly with the customer to resolve their concerns while also looking at ways to prevent a similar situation from happening again." Seems like they kind of confirmed it? Or what dd you read that indicated otherwise? |

"I was not truly in the dark for a week. My smart home runs mostly locally and Alexa really is just a polymorphic interface. I was just able to use Siri."
Even at that the only thing turned off was his Amazon Echo.
Initial reporting on this story, especially the right-wing press, made it out like he was physically locked out of him home, or his appliances were remotely disabled. Neither is at all accurate.
