Amazon Sidewalk

[Thulian]

So amazon launched something called amazon sidewalk ( Without telling anyone )

Basically it turns every amazon echo dot or alexa thing into a wifi hotspot and everyone who has one shares wifi ( So if your wifi sucks and your neighbors is good you get a boost)

The best part is, they did it automatically without asking anyone if it was ok, and its pre enabled now with new device purchases.

They say its very secure, what do you think?

they have GUEST Login, so if you have an account you can sit outside someones house, login with your device and do bad stuff online on their modem. Sure after an investigation they will see it was guest login but imagine pinging bells at FBI Datacenters because you didnt turn off the xfinity wifi

tip : Shut off default modem WIFI and use a real wifi router with a PASSWORD

doubletip: change default password, my neighbor had linksys as his password for 10y not even kidding

Here in the greater Seattle area; you'd be surprised. Surprisingly though, none of my Amazon friends owns one. LMAO!

I use one for an alarm clock. I guess it also records my sex life in audio. SOmetimes it beeps or does the flashing lights to indicate it heard a keyword when we are talking about something with gravitas. I think it's honestly trying to intimidate me. Anyway, I figure it's better to give them a window into my life so they can have proof I'm a defanged consumer, cuz of my history and relations.

But honestly, your android phone is recording every single word you say that can be transcribed to text, and sending the text home. I'm sure some of y'all have android phones. Who cares about alexa.
