Two senators want Amazon's Jeff Bezos to answer for Alexa's eavesdropping

Echo devices misinterpret human commands, and, say, start recording private conversations without permission? Two senators want to know. In a letter dated June 11, Sens. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) and Christopher A. Coons (D-Del.) The letter was first reported by Wired. The senators, who lead the Judiciary subcommittee on privacy, technology and the law, framed the letter around a recent incident involving a family that discovered that their Echo had recorded a private conversation and sent it to a random person in their contacts.
