I shouldn't have called this a "conspiracy story" and I should have given more respect to the parties involved who experienced this. While I think the issue is similar to a "butt dial", the customer felt violated and more precautions should have been taken to prevent this.

What I should have said is this report makes it difficult to understand what actually happened. It seems clear this article favors click-bait quotes that insinuate a "big brother" vibe such as:

> "'unplug your Alexa devices right now,' she said. 'You're being hacked.'"

If she had instead said "Alexa butt-dialed me!", would you still be interested in this report?
