I listen to Juniper all the time and I've listened to the clips of Sky and Scarlett Johansson (as "Her") side-by-side. It's pretty easy to be certain.

I find that argument extremely disturbing. The facts are we have a voice that was developed months ago, is a real person, and actually sounds nothing like Scarlett Johansson. The actress is not even doing a Scarlett Johansson impression. It's also just one of many selections. And yet, somehow, a crime has been committed?
