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.
