Don't Buy Anyone an Echo

I like the Echo and I'll admit that there are privacy concerns. What do you think are ways to mitigate those (besides hitting the mute button)?

I was thinking about monitoring the outbound data (to detect voice streaming). What tools would you use for that?

Wait... does hitting the mute button solve this invasion of privacy?

So all you need is another robot that can hit the mute button for you when you give it a less sophisticated audible command?
