This crossword clue was "Hacker's Tool" and I had _ X E filled in.
The connecting clue was not helpful because it was a character from a book I am not familiar with.
I put "E X E", which, works, I guess, because you could trick someone with a backdoor file.
The answer was "A X E". Wrong Hacker.
Amazon sent me a survey about Alexa, but it didn't have any sort of comment box, so I could not let them know that "Alexa seems to constantly forgety alarms."
And also "Alexa isn't AI," because they kept calling it that.
