I asked Alexa what the weather was like, and they shoe horned a sponsorship.
“drink a verification can to continue”
"it's the thirst mutilator!"
Was it by the way? Say "Alexa, turn off 'by the way'."
No, it was like "weather is brought to you by." Can I not remember the rest because I was blinded by rage . I didn't even hear the weather. It only happened once.
Thank you for this
They caught on to that and now you gotta setup a routine that automatically disables it every 24 hours because it now auto re-enables itself after a while.
I disabled mine... I don't know when. Maybe a year ago or so? It's still off. I get your point but it's definitely not required. It's been months and it hasn't come back on. I don't think the effort of setting up a routine is worth it (with the current rate it re-enables).
