My Smart Speaker Ordered 500 Rolls of Toilet Paper Because I 'Seemed Anxious'

I watched from my window as the delivery robot drove straight into my garden. It crushed three months of work. The company's response? "Our robots are not liable." I took them to small claims court. I won. What happened next will surprise you. I documented everything. I recorded every interaction. I fought back. And I learned that AI failures aren't glitches—they're features of a system that wasn't designed for humans.

🔴 WHAT TO DO IF THIS HAPPENS TO YOU: • Take screenshots immediately. The AI might delete the evidence. • Record every conversation. Note times, dates, and agent IDs. • Demand a human. Keep asking. Keep escalating. • File complaints with the FTC, your state AG, and the BBB. • Go public. Social media and local news are your best weapons. • Find others. There is power in numbers. Class actions are forming. • Don't give up. You didn't break the algorithm. The algorithm broke you.
