Right, here I go.
Amazon echo makes us too fat and lazy, how about giving control to disabled
people who can't access the physical environment that well? Speak to your
devices and boom, control of your home via your voice.

If you take that argument further, you might say that modern central heating
is for people who are too fat and lazy to chop wood and build a fire.
Granted, modern technology can make people fat and lazy, but it is
convenient and allows people to use everyday things, such as dictating to an
iPhone when the alternative is not to use a smartphone at all as a friend of
mine does. Also modern technology allows us to get on with more enjoyable
or important things.
Cheers
Barry

Hi all.
Sorry about that, but seriously, Echo is a useful and improving
access tool and warrants reasonable discussion on this list.
