    “…I question why my entire smart home system had to be rendered unusable during their internal investigation,…”

    Like most things today, even if one is innocent it’s the process that is the punishment, without apology, for alleged wrongthink.

    Once you’ve decided your corporation must be responsible stake holder and demonstrate social responsiblity [blah, blah, blah] then of course it becomes zealous private enforcer of social conformity.

    When Amazon executives are arrested, prosecuted, and convicted for this, then I’ll believe Amazon isn’t above the law.

    Never, ever, link devices in your home to Alexa or Google or anything that can shut them down.
    That’s always going to be a terrible idea.
