> Do you want an always-on Alexa in your hotel room?

I encountered literally this for the first time a couple weeks ago. At one point we noticed it was doing the "listening for command" thing during an unrelated conversation, and my wife said, "Alexa, stop listening!", whereupon it told us to use the physical switch for the mic on the device if we didn't want it listening.
