Incident 5516 Report
Alexa Plays Pornography Instead of Kids Song

Whoops, Alexa Plays Porn Instead of a Kids Song!
entrepreneur.com · 2017

In this NSFW video, Amazon put the "X" in Alexa when a child asked it to play his favorite song. (You'll want to wear headphones for this one, folks.)

January 3, 2017 1 min read

The description on this YouTube video posted by f0t0b0y reads, “Why!?!? We just got our new echo dot and this happened!?!?”

Normally we’d say to ease up on the exclamation points, buddy, but in this case, they seem more than warranted.

When the child in the video tells Alexa to “play ‘Digger, Digger,’" Alexa answers, “You want to hear a station for porn detected...hot chick amateur girl sexy."

But Alexa doesn’t stop there, no sir, and rattles off a litany of porn terms that’d make Dirk Diggler blush.

Watch (with headphones!) and enjoy the increasing panic you hear in the parents’ voices. On the bright side, we guess moms and dads no longer have to sweat having “the talk” with their kids—a robot will do your (literal) dirty work for you.
