ANDROID HEADLINES - Jan 19 - Match.com pulled its Alexa skill for Amazon's Echo speakers and other compatible devices less than 48 hours following its launch and shortly after it became clear the service meant to provide users with dating tips delivers advice that many may find controversial. The skill itself provided general dating tips but also covered advice about sexual interactions. Inquiries about whether to have intercourse on the first date were often met with tongue-in-cheek responses such as "only if you must," as were questions on how many drinks to have, to which the skill suggested a user's alcohol consumption should be inversely proportional to the level of attractiveness of their date.
