I was at a multifamily technology conference in San Diego last year and during a panel with some 'experts', brought up the concern of devices like Amazon Echo recording people's conversations. The lady who responded misunderstood me and chimed in within something like: "you know, I haven't even thought of that. There are many opportunities for revenue with this technology". But that was an evil uber-landlord, not sure where Amazon stands on this. If they want to increase adoption for this technology, they better come up with a solid privacy policy and stand behind it.

For that everything you say needs to be sent through the web. Amazon will store everything they can for the purpose of later using this as a training data set.
