Amazon to start automatically sharing internet connections After opt out period

Or you deleted it... I love to think I'm special... but I'm usually not... if I got it then I believe all Echo users got it.

I never got it and have 3 echo devices registered under that email, and I rarely delete emails unless it's pure spam.

Can someone explain to me how this works? Does an echo device have the capabilities of a router?
how can amazon share my internet if I do not use their router?

Your Echo knows how to connect to your router. It teaches the nearby Echos how to

That's not how it works, that would be an obvious risk if they gave the connection info to a different device and that device is now fully on your network, and they also wouldn't be able to control that it shouldn't use a lot of Bandwidth.

Instead, they use connection from Echo device to Echo device (using Bluetooth single as well as different unused wireless spectrum) and on device acts as a bridge to send the other device's info/alert/etc. Sort of the way Apples Find My work by utilizing Apple device to Apple device connection.
