I just got an offer from Amazon for “Early Access” to Alexa+
Has anyone else see this, or perhaps actually “pulled the trigger”?
No one in their right mind would pull that trigger.

please explain why Alexa+ is a problem/
What could go wrong with a always on/listening microphone array connected to the cloud? 
But well, some recordings of people talking to Alexa (still without the plus) are actually quite hilarious…

LOL. I understand your point, but if anyone gets that bored to listen to my conversations, then I do not care 
Oh, I agree - but Amazon is really forcing the issue. One example, Vivint, our security vendor, has announced that they will NOT be changing their integration to work w/Plus, and their basic integration will stop working next month.
I have the HA preview box and am gradually moving all my voice stuff to that

Please share some voice messages of yours with us as you (claim) to don’t care! 
Also, as you obviously(?) have nothing to hide, please also post your passwords while you are uploading your conversations for us 
If we don’t here back from @EndUser they probably found out about their ignoratio elenchi 
I did not mean any disrespect to those that do worry about privacy. My comment about my conversations was meant as a light comment, but the truth is that I consider privacy as somewhat a lost cause.
You are obviously very concerned about this and that is your right, but no need to make sneering comments.
