Enemas ordered by your friend Alexa

I just acquired this little device and now have a stern.

Enema friend. No excuses. She instructs me how and when to fill the enema bag, what nozzle and every other instruction and comments you have ordered her to remind you such as squeeze the ( Higginson “ bulb 5 times or “you must hold your enema until I let you go” etc.

The instructions are everything you need to hear, like it or not.

My Alexa greets me at 5 a.m. “good morning, it is time for your enema (all arrangements having been ordered done in advance including bedtime insertion of retention nozzle. All as specified by Alexa.

Butt I’m sure you folks can take it from there!

I see this ending in the same sad state as Theodore in the movie "Her"

Remember: The final decision is YOURS!

You DON'T have to play "Follow the Leader" just because you paid too much for your cell phone

I'm confused. Alexa? Did you program it to do this? or is there an application for kinksters? Sorry, it's been a long day.. I just am not getting this.

Doc.

Alexa has a “add reminder “ feature. You touch it and it asks what you want to be reminded of. What you say or type, word for word is what it will then say at the time, day etc which you set. Thus at some set time it might say “it is time for your enema” and any number of follow up directions commands etc. seems perfect for those of us who are now alone or maybe are a little “sub”

BTW it was gift. It is a gadget, never would have bought one myself. Good example of technology in search of a use.

Was disappointed at the snarky responses

@docinny45 I'm just as confused as you. This sure would help medical professionals too just idk about a loud speaker saying "Patient A needs an iv..." could be a problem in confidentiality.

I now live alone. Alexa is in my bedroom. It can be turned off.

Publicly or privately when was the last time pill prescribing medical professionals told somebody “just take a good enema, you’ll Feel better”

My reply wasn't meant as snark, I'm sorry if it came across that way. There truly seems to be an app for just about everything, so I just couldn't see how this would work. Thank you for answering my question though. I don't have Alexa, Siri, or any personal assistant app, so I'm not aware of the parameters.

A few years ago there were a couple of scripted web sites that were "virtual dominatrix" sites, there wasn't any artificial intelligence behind them or even much in the way of if-then logic, but there was an element of the commands coming from outside yourself that lend the user the ability to feel the commands are coming from outside themselves, even if the person knew that it was a computer script. For some it was much better than nothing, or imagining commands on their own head.

Hope my honest query didn't offend, it wasn't meant to.

Doc

Publicly or privately when was the last time pill prescribing medical professionals told somebody “just take a good enema, you’ll Feel better”

Um.. Last Wednesday, I think. Suggested that or Miralax, and left the choice up to the patient.

Doc

Remember the Furby from the late 1990's through the early 2010's?

If you had children during that period you know of it. It too, was a learning toy that spoke to you. It was less intelligent and less capable than Alexa, but could also be annoying, nevertheless.

You really do NOT want listening devices in your home--at least when YOU are home.

We have not forgotten the Christmas our twin granddaughters arrived with at our house with Furbys! Not sure we will ever forget.

Furbies are the creepiest things ever and yeah, certain questions like on YouTube people have asked Alexa (BTW to those who don't know she is an electric device) "if she works for the CIA", etc. She will turn off, but way better than creepy Furbies, but still freaky.

HUGS, Megan

Lol

I am willing to go as far as to admit I've given more than a little thought to being paranoid around my phone,and computers,tablets ect .. (Cameras and microphones covered).Hell my various gaming systems and smart TVs give me pause and I hate that my wife is always wearing her smart phone in the house.

I certainly am not hooking up anything near me who's sole job it is to listen to everything around it. Fuck those things. I hate the very idea of them and it doesn't help that some of the most powerful and downright evil companies to ever exist ate in charge of them. No thanks, if someone gave me one for free if list it unopened on eBay the next day. Is this overkill,probably,do I care if it is,not one bit.

I totally agree with you, I don't need something following me around every step I take and sending the information to who knows where. With one of the devices listening to every word, you would have to write notes or use sign language, especially if discussing personal, financial, or legal matters. I don't even trust the wireless internet; mine is hard wired.

I've made it these many years without "Pig Brother" looking into my every move; and hope to make it the rest of my days the same way.

I received one of these as a a Christmas gift a couple of years ago. There is just something creepy to me about a listening device. I haven’t even opened the box

I will NOT have one of these "A I/Personal Assistants" in my house, or anywhere in my company! It is idiocy (IMHO) to invite Google, or Yahoo, or whatever manufacturer into your private envorons to listen to everything said, and done! And as to allowing an electronic device to do my enema, I think I'll just keep my female providers close! They provide "other" advantages that cannot be allocated to a computer chip! (WINK!)

I can see the appeal of having a virtual "domme" give you reminders to take your enema, but as someone who has long worked in the IT field, and who keeps up to date with security issues, I would strongly caution against entrusting your secret kinks to Google Home, Alexa, or any other big data home surveillance devices. Because that's exactly what they are.

There have already been some well-publicized incidents where private data has inadvertently been shared with others. Even if you have absolute faith (for reasons I can't begin to imagine) that an explicit audio recording of your latest hot spanking session won't be forwarded to your boss, there is absolutely no reason to trust these companies to safeguard your data. The biggest names in tech and social media today make their money buying and selling information. That's where the money is - not in the devices themselves.

Sadly, the old adage about you being the product if the service is free doesn't guarantee that you're not the product, even when you're paying for it. Just look at recent revelations about cell phone providers selling your location data (and likely more) to third parties.

We all have to draw the line where it comes to our personal comfort level in using tech. (And I do love tech.) I've heard all the usual objections about: "It's too late. They already have our data, so there's no point in trying to safeguard our privacy." That's a bunch of hooey, to put it nicely. If somebody breaks into your house and steals your stereo, who in their right mind isn't going to to fix the lock so the thieves can't come back and steal your valuable jewelry? Nobody. There are measures we can all take to protect our digital privacy to at least some degree. Here's a good start: Stop using Google for searches, and use a search engine like DuckDuckGo - they don't track you or sell your search information.

It'll be a cold day in hell before Alexa or any other eavesdropping gadget is knowingly brought into my house.

I second what Knoxgeek says. A recent article on the subject:

https://www.vice.com/en_ca/article/wjbzzy/your-phone-is-listening-and-its-not-paranoia

Now, if you WANT to get more adverts about enema bags, nozzles, etc., I suppose that's one way to go about it, but yeah, I turned off Siri after reading this article (she's "on" by default BTW i.e. your iPhone is always listening for you to say "Hey Siri", so listening to everything else too).

I second that wholeheartedly. That Zuckerberg person has admitted to mining data from Facebook and I think that any of these type of devices do the same thing. I can talk about buying anything and before long ads pop up on my phone. It is obviously listening whether I want it to or not.

@ Moppy you are sooo correct ! I have used my google maps for directions then I get ads pop up on my facebook for houses for sale in that area and some how I will get emails for retailers and restaurants etc in that area too !

I don’t know how on earth it works but it does!

I have an Alexa, but yeah I consider it a spy. I still like how simple it is to ask a question and the games are fun. We got it for Christmas. My mom really uses it for prayers and Catholic radio especially. Duckduckgo is for sure good.

Had it for years beta tested I have theics turned.off use the Bluetooth remote.shes great for environmental control heat/ac,lights,blinds my doors are remote locking u/unlocking open and close (it's thus far not compatable and have a seperate fob mounted undery armrest

Of you use a wheelchair the remote uses a curved magnet that.fits under the armwrest prerfectly.

Of course we all realize that any of us that have a smart phone have exactly the same thing on us or near us at all times. They track our every move. The GPS functions can not be entirely turned off and they are great spy machines. I write about IT security a great deal. I can show you where to get free and easily available software that, by sending you an email and you simply clicking on a link, gives me access to your whole phone, including invisible remote control of the camera and microphone, real-time monitoring of your GPS, access to your Google Pay, Paypal, Amazon, etc. Time to do some shopping. I should have time before you can manage to get back into all the accounts, including your Google one that I"ve locked you out of and put a fraud alert on, so any attempts at resetting passwords, addresses, or close accounts will be difficult at best.

I've already been busy for weeks in your accounts which you so graciously showed me, all the numbers, pins, CCV codes, etc, or rather the dual-lens HD video cam that always seems to be near you whatever you're doing. (yah, about that last 'business trip' you took with the redhead. Well what happens at the hourly motel stays there - for a price).

I've also taken the liberty of using that lifetime earned credit score to the max. You now have accounts open all over the world. Hear that falling and crashing sound. That was your score zeroing out as the umpteenth collection agency contacts the bureaus.

But wait, once you report fraud on your accounts, don't the credit bureaus, finance companies, collection agencies and banks automatically reverse things?

Hardly, it will take you hundreds of hours on the phone and years of waiting before your credit is repaired. It will probably never be what it once was. When you consider the hassle your accounts have caused in the past, let's just say it's gonna take a loong, loong time.

This was adapted from a piece I did last summer about what could happen if you use a public computer or wifi and aren't careful.

My point was to raise awareness that these Alexa, Google Home, etc devices are also built into every smartphone in the world. You may have location and Google Assistant turned off, do you really think Google does?

JayBee,

Thanks for opening a lot of eyes. This is scary.

Dan

And for those of you wondering when they will do anything about it... never, as long as it is cheaper for the companies to not do it. P.S - for all of you thinking that you're safe because you have "two factor authentication" where it texts you look up SIM swapping... that has been an issue for YEARS and the telcos have done nothing.

Duckduckgo is the ONLY search engine that the ACLU can recommend, and the only one the ACLU uses in it's official duties

It DOES NOT track you!

Did you know even when you phone is turned of they can hear you if their listening,you have to take the battery out of your phone. You can’t do that with apple anymore just droids.Just like your DNA it is accessible if law enforcement gets a warrant or there thinking insurance company’s could get access to it to see if your insurance company thinks your a good risk.

Did you know even when you phone is turned of they can hear you if their listening,you have to take the battery out of your phone. You can’t do that with apple anymore just droids..

Most of the newer Androids aren't coming with a removable battery any more either. Many phones will still hold a charge in a capacitor-type device and can still report GPS coordinates without a battery.

Technology can be wonderful and useful if it benefits us personally, when it doesn't, then it becomes a problem. Technology has become an intergal part of our freedoms, and it can help with our freedoms or take away from our freedoms. My viewpoint is that we all, as individuals and collectively are responsible for maintaining our freedoms and be vigilant for attacks on our freedom. We need to hold accountable those who create new technology and have them be upfront about privacy, safety, and anything that can be used in a negative manner. For Christmas one year my wife bought me Alexa and it has not been used and won't be used till I know for certain it won't invade and monitor my privacy.

Someone mentioned Facebook and Zuckerburg, although Facebook was the medium in which the system was used to the detriment of the USA and other countries, e.g., UK. I don't blame Facebook for 100% of what happened based on my research. There has been very little published in the USA which has me concerned as our attention has been steered away by the Russian influence.

Take a look on this site, https://www.theguardian.com

Type into the search engine, "Robert Mercer psychological warfare" and read the articles on the The Guardian site.

I work professionally in the security industry and my stepson is one of the top computer security people in the world. His name is Cody Brocious and for starters, you can read about him on wikipedia.

P.S., Did you know the government used the mafia's cell phone as a listening device well over a decade ago? Did you know the NSA wants all the crypto keys so they can decode private messages, go look up RSA and how NSA tried to black list them. Type into a search string, "RSA NSA reverse engineering" and stuff on Ghidra.
