Is it really any worse than all the other goofy things people ask Siri just to hear the funny responses? There are thousands of things listed that people ask as jokes and Apple specifically programed response for them.
It is just an automated voice on a cell phone not a person that can be "harassed".

Good point... But i can't imagine anyone asking silly questions to these automated programs.

Goggle questions for Siri. there are 1,000s. As soon as a technology is invented somebody finds a way to make a game of it. Just pure human nature.

People do this alllll the time. My favorite is asking what does the fox say

I hate to bring up comedians' version of things because I've heard many have really high, highs, and some have really low, lows. Those that aren't good at it maybe should just keep it to themselves.

I wouldn't be surprised what happened on "Futurama" is what is going to happen. The episode when they clone Lucy Lu, comes to mind.

You want real feedback?

My issue is she claims to not change the setting to the male voice because "she is lazy" but does all this other research to back her point. She also claims it because she prefers the femal voice but then and backs that up with data but then attacks the premise later due to inherit sexism, but the real crap about that is it wouldnt take any time at all to just change it back after said study was done so two very poor excuses.

Heres why I dont think she tried the male voice also. If the male voice gives the same response then her argument isnt as valid because people dont see sexual harassment of men as something thats is as big an issue and won't pull readers with a headline.

And this is why nobody takes them seriously anymore. Not even most women. They're just another part of the whining legion that goes around bitching about non-issues and/or trivial matters, mostly for P.C. reasons.
