Amazon Alexa user? @JasonAten recommends 3 tips to protect your privacy on the device:
1. Turn off Sidewalk, Amazon's mesh network that allows devices to connect to each other
2. Turn off voice recordings
3. Check/limit which 3rd-party Skills have access

@duckduckgo I think there is only one way to improve things if you have an Alexa: get rid of it and scrap it. Support privacy respecting, free software personal assistants instead. Mycroft for example https://opensource.com/article/20/6/open-source-voice-assistant
@eighthave and @duckduckgo, note that while the software is indeed libre, if one does not self-host and use their service, their privacy policy states:
We may share aggregate or de-identified information about users with third parties for marketing, advertising, research or similar purposes.
