By "devices" I was assuming you meant the Alexa, and similar devices.

Or do you use Alexa to get to FR? Not sure how that would work. I use a PC and sometimes a tablet.
I would never treat a PC with a hammer. I would wave it around so the PC could see it when misbehaving...just to give it some food for thought about its next "reprogramming".

LOL! I use my kindle, but if not Alexa, then some other creepy AI programming is about and listening. Our smart tv’s and smartphones are all ears. Oh my gosh! I just realized I inadvertently said that OUT LOUD, right in front of my TOASTER! If you don’t hear from me in three days, CALL THE POLICE! \X^E

Kids gave us a “fire stick” with Alexa built in. Still in the box in a drawer never to be used. Now, had they given me a proper “firestick”.......

And all the time, the evil little thing is laying there, in that drawer, listening...listening...
(Think what Hitchcock or Serling could have done with this stuff!)
