Wikipedia: Amazon Echo
Amazon Echo, often shortened to Echo, is an American brand of smart speakers developed by Amazon. Echo devices connect to the voice-controlled intelligent personal assistant service Alexa, which will respond when a user says “Alexa”. Users may change this wake word to “Amazon”, “Echo”, “Computer”, as well as some other options.

I started carrying my pistol around the house
My roommate asked “Why are you walking around with your gun?” I leaned in and whispered “Because the government is spying on me.” My roommate laughed. I laughed. The Amazon Echo laughed. I shot the Echo.
