Abstract: Using a method of operating a system that includes remote servers, and at least one electronic device, a user verbally instructs the electronic device to activate a function. The system uses the remote servers and other parts of the system to determine that the function is not currently enabled and requires a user-acknowledgment to terms of use before the function is enabled. The system provides information on the terms of use and solicits a user-acknowledgment to the terms of use. The user provides a verbal acknowledgment of the terms of use and the verbal acknowledgment is received and stored in a persistent data store.

Abstract: Systems and methods for establishing a communications system between multiple electronic devices are described herein. In some embodiments, first audio data representing a first utterance may be received from an initiating device. A first user account associated with the initiating device may be determined. After determining that the utterance comprises an intent to communicate with a target, a list of entity names associated with the user account may be generated. Each entity name may represent a user contact associated with the first user account, a user device corresponding to the first user account, and/or a set of entity names representing user contacts and devices. Based on a relative comparison of each entity name to the target's name, an entity name may be selected from the plurality of entity names. A communications session may then be established between the initiating device and a device represented by the selected entity name.
