A federal lawsuit is alleging that Amazon is recording children who use its Alexa devices, without their consent or knowledge. Amazon is the built-in voice assistant shipped with devices like Amazon Echo, Amazon Dot, Fire TV and some third-party gadgets. If the allegations are true, Amazon would be in violation of laws governing recordings in at least eight states, including California, Florida, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania and Washington. Amazon reiterated its stance: Amazon has a longstanding commitment to preserving the trust of our customers and their families, and we have strict measures and protocols in place to protect their security and privacy
