Back in 2019, Amazon added a toggle that let users opt-out of having their voice recordings and message transcripts 'manually reviewed,' and before that, the company added an option to delete your entire voice history with one command. The online retailer has received much scrutiny over the years when it comes to the privacy implications of its smart speakers and displays. That means these audio clips won't be sent to the cloud and they'll be automatically deleted after the Alexa device processes them. Soon, US customers can choose to have all of their voice commands processed on their Alexa devices. The most interesting, by far, are the new privacy features coming to the latest Alexa devices. Amazon announced a slew of new connected devices today, and with those came some new Alexa features that users will be able to take advantage of.
