  1. I think we need a Defcon devoted to sabotaging Skynet. Or repurposing it.

  2. "Hello. I'm an Alexa Echo that someone gifted to Rob Braxman. Some day I'm going to have to take him apart." RUN ROB RUN!

  3. 433 megahertz: almost all car key fobs, and home alarm systems, among other things. "Alexa, start my car and turn on the AC." ?

  4.  @insuchaway  If Alexa can transpond on 433 Mhz, then it can imitate key fobs used for home alarm systems, car remote controls, garage door openers, and much more. Since it is not openly or fully documented, speculate at will. Starting up some cars via the remote can be good, if you want to climate control them. Alexa could be easier than using your fob. Or...someone might use your Alexa to "listen" to your remote, and steal your car. A two-edged sword.
