“This is getting ridiculous and I’m about to just toss the whole thing and move back to Google,” one Redditor said of the “full-volume” ads for Alexa+ on their Echo Show.

Oh sweet summer child, Google is NOT going to be any better at this. That will just be changing one corporate evil for another.

    Additionally, Echo Shows may play audio ads when users listen to Amazon Music on Alexa.

    Idiots. It’s called - get a media player and a bluetooth speaker of which the media player can connect to. Both of which don’t contain ads.

    How inconvenienced are we that simply having a basic alarm clock - which has no ads, a dumb tv - that gives you no ads and among other stupidly simple but workable technology is just not enough?

    They’re just glorified tablets slapped onto the Echo speakers. Fucking morons.
