    Sound’s like it’s just not sending the data back to Daddy Google. The OK Google/Alexa bit is done on a custom chip on the device. Clearly that bit isn’t being turned off, but anything after that isn’t being sent anywhere.

    Probably just saves support calls this way from idiots who turn it off and forget.

        I can monitor network traffic, I would know if a bunch of devices around my home were constantly streaming audio 24/7
