Comment on Amazon will cut 'several hundred' Alexa jobs as it ends unspecified initiatives

Comments

To be honest I really liked Alexa with Ring. I know there's controversy with Ring, but it's just amazing how I can setup some cameras outside my home and then buy cheap alexa monitors to place around the house which show a camera preview whenever there's movement detected. In the past this would have required much more hardware that would have cost thousands.

And then people can hack into it (because it isn't that difficult), and you don't know your data/service is compromised because Amazon nor Ring discloses that to you.

Is it really that easy? I don't know but imagine Amazon has a bug bounty program for that.
