Bust out the brain bleach,ceritya lucah because you're gonna need it.

In an amazing feat of not being able to see what's right in front of them, on Dec. 11 Bloomberg Businessweekpublished a well-reported dive into the privacy concerns surrounding Amazon's family of Alexa products. And, to drive the article's point home, someone on the company's art team created cover art that, shall we say, implies customers are doing more than just talkingto the digital assistant.

We, of course, reached out to the makers of the sex toy in question for their opinion on Bloomberg'sunholy creation. And, well, what did you expect? It turns out they're into it.

"We have seen the ad, we did immediately see the unintentional similarity, and even we think it's a little earie," wrote Fleshlight marketing managerDaniel Harvell. "'Alexa, play Super Freak,'" he added.
