But the macbook can do that, possibly better in fact, as it has more resources at its disposal to analyze your audio.

As GP said, you're trusting that it doesn't.

100% - but the fact of the matter is that almost ALL the Echo does is analyze audio over remote servers. If Apple is doing it, it is covert and would upset a LOT of people if they found out.
