Because, What happens in Vegas stays on Amazon servers forever

I do understand why they are doing it. Yet I REALLY don't like the idea of an always on audio recording device in my hotel room, especially in Las Vegas lol!

Orwell never would have imagined that we'd be paying for the privilege to surveil ourselves.

This sounds intriguing. But today, the Echo pairs with the Alexa service, which requires the end-user to log in with an Amazon account. For a shared setting like this, how will that be handled?<p>Alexa&#x27;s usual strategies don&#x27;t apply: no personalized info, no integration with your Amazon ecosystem. I&#x27;m curious how their data ingestion and data analysis will be altered to accommodate this scenario, and prevent the guests&#x27; &quot;personalized&quot; data from being sticky between different guests.

Not even a single mention in the press release about guest privacy or whether or not guests may choose to opt-out. I won&#x27;t be considering Wynn on my next trip to Vegas, that&#x27;s for sure.

Now I sorta wish Google were in the hotel business.
