I heard about this on the radio this morning as I was driving to work. I don't own an Amazon Echo, I don't use Amazon's Alexa, nor do I have a Ring Doorbell. And I am SO GLAD, because of Amazon Sidewalk, which is being launched today. Unless users opt-out of this, Unless "all Amazon Echo and Ring users now share a slice of your bandwidth with the neighborhood."

"If you own one of these devices and want to opt-out, here's how:

1. Open the Alexa app in your phone.

2. Tap More in the lower right-hand corner of the app.

3. Tap Settings.

4. Tap Account Settings.

5. Tap Amazon Sidewalk.

6. Switch Sidewalk off and exit out of the app."
