>> In some sense, the whole purpose of Alexa is to record what you're saying
No. Just no. When voice recognition is done locally there is no reason to record you and certainly no reason to send those recordings to the cloud. Most Alexa users didn't know it was recording them until stories broke about it. If recording is "the whole purpose" of the device I think the public has been terribly lied to.
