No dude, they don't send shit to the cloud to process. It just stores like 5 seconds of voice locally and listens for the wake word. This is why you can only choose a few wake words and not pick anything arbitrary. I'm all for criticizing big tech, but don't lie about how it works.
Edit: Small correction, they of course send the the buffer and begin properly recording once it detects the wake word. Locally it can only detect Alexa and any other wake words it can respond to.
Yeah, right? It's technology not magic. Anyone can monitor the traffic from a device on a network and if it were sending a significant amount of data when not activated, every third party security researcher would know within minutes. It would be well publicized by respected security research organizations if they were constantly sending voice data.
