the other day I thought of a secondary device (that's not connected to the internet) that would go along with Alexa or whatever mic-connected device that "somehow" scrambles the sounds so that it's just noise to Alexa until you say the keyword, at which point it unscrambles for some given period of time so Alexa can understand.

Is such a device possible?? I don't know, probably not but it would help me feel better about getting one of these devices
