A British designer has created an NSFW use for his Amazon Alexa, essentially turning it into the world's first robotic dominatrix.

Please sign in or subscribe to access the full content.Gary, known online as Deviant Designs, linked up his Alexa to a device that he made himself, designed to deliver pain on demand. The Echo Dot connects to a Raspberry Pi, which in turn is connected to an Arduino hardware controller wired to an electric shock collar for dogs, Engadget reports.
This dog collar, usually worn by pets to prevent them from running away, has been broken apart by Gary, an amateur enthusiast who learned all his coding and hardware skills from online tutorials. The wires that deliver the electric shocks were taken out and inserted into shock clamps, specifically designed to be clipped to your labia.
As shown in this video, you can then issue the command "Alexa: Punish", to which Alexa responds "has the slut been naughty?". If you're a grass, and respond "yes", Alexa responds "well then, let's give her a little zap".
Then, as promised, the device gives off what looks like quite a potent electric shock. If you tell Alexa that your partner has been "extremely" naughty, it will deliver short bursts of electric shocks that last for a full minute.
Ouchy.
If you respond "no" then no electric shock will be administered to your genitals by the helpful Amazon Alexa assistant. The device only has limited commands at the moment, though Gary said he is working on adding more.
In a somewhat horrifying admission, Gary told Engadget that in a hasty attempt to get the device finished, he at first forgot to create an off switch. Thank the lord he and his partner didn't test it the old-fashioned way.
Deviant Designs has created several other high-tech devices, including a "punishment pump" and an "iPad gag", which you can check out on Engadget or on Deviant Designs' Twitter page.
