Users will have the option of keeping their smart speaker commands out of the cloud.
Amazon's new Echo smart speakers will allow on-device processing.
Amazon will offer on-device processing on its Echo smart speakers for the first time. During its Tuesday product event, the company said it'll give users the option of having their smart speaker voice commands recorded and processed on their devices, rather than in the cloud.
On-device processing is generally considered better for digital privacy and security because it protects user data from being collected by Amazon or other companies for their own use.
