The current (full) answer is 'Edward Joseph "Ed" Snowden, the American computer professional former CIA employee, and government contractor who leaked classified information from the U.S. National Security Agency in 2013.' Now obviously there could be -lots- going on behind the scenes, for example long term caching of search results (difficult to believe that Bing would allow that if it is really from them, but who knows) and so

Hi all, I checked in with Adele today, to ask about progress on the Amazon Echo licensing issue, and whether she had a rough idea when she'd be able to report back to us. Adele was happy for me to pass on here that we're unlikely to hear

further about this until September, as Wikimania is looming, and she will be off on a much-needed holiday after that. Adele added that the timeline really depends on the Amazon staff they contacted. While she will let us know as soon as she hears from them, the call required for this type of outreach will probably only happen in September.

I was speaking with Barbara Page last night (Barbara's highlighting of

issue in a Wikipediocracy blog post http://wikipediocracy.com/2017/07/24/alexa/ prompted Andreas to open

discussion) last night and she told me when she asks Alexa about ovarian cancer these days, Alexa begins with "According to Wikipedia..." Can

else with Alexa confirm this? > On Sat, 5 Aug 2017 at 3:55 am, Andreas Kolbe &lt;jayen466(a)gmail.com&gt;
