    No. For security purposes, the microphone cannot be enabled (or disabled) via software. It requires a physical touch, and is hardwired to the LED to allow the user to always know when it is listening.

    You dismiss it - well here is actual quotes from Amazon rep on the the physical button that can't be disable by software. Exactly as was answered here.
