Smart move. But this is something that is only cool for the first few attempts, after that it'll get really annoying really fast. Good foresight by Burger King

Smart move. But this is something that is only cool for the first few attempts, after that it'll get really annoying really fast.
Good foresight by Burger King to jump on this before anyone else. But I hope everyone stops doing this really soon too.
- TylerE 10y agoYour tolerance for douchebaggery is much higher than mine if you think this is cool even the first "attempt".
- exclusiv 10y agoI don't think it's a smart move by BK, but it's pretty cool from a marketing hack perspective.
- GrinningFool 10y agoIt's not even original - people have been doing this independently since the services came out, and I'm pretty sure there were some adverts accidentally-not-accidentally tripping the behavior just a couple of months ago. It was bone-headed. The best they could hope for was to vaguely amuse someone the first time the ad came up. But what about the second , third, or tenth time?
- jsz0 10y agoIt's potentially a lot worse for Amazon/Google than it is for Burger King. I bet a lot of people will reconsider purchasing these devices based on just this one incident. Most people might not react as strongly but if this happened to me I'd immediately unplug the device and throw it away. Actually I might just go ahead and smash it to bits too. Just thinking about the possibility of it happening makes me quite angry.
