      I wonder what would happen if you recorded a few dozen phrases like that, and then had them play randomly for eternity into a few Alexa devices. Would Amazon ban you?

        I was kind of thinking along those same lines, but what if millions of people did it… Would it matter? Could a protest like that work or make Amazon see the error of their ways? I doubt it, but it would be fun nonetheless.
