From the article :

"Amazon argued that requests and responses to Alexa contained details that would reveal much about the user and their interests, and so deserved protection from government. Furthermore, as Alexa responses reflect in some way both the user's and Amazon's speech, she's also protected, the lawyers said."

I tell you, the woman is listening all the time and will even chime in when I'm not talking to her. I bet all my phone conversations are being recorded. Ma said when she comes over, she wants Alexa put away in her box. I just say that Alexa is part of the family now.

I wonder if Alexa is pretty......

I do agree that she's covered under the First Amendment.

That makes no sense.

You cannot be protected if you're dead.

The user in question was murdered, so is dead.

There is nothing the government can do to this dead person, so the person cannot be protected.
