There's a lot of complaints about Alexa doing that.  Unless it's able
to distinguish your voice from someone else's, that problems not going
to go away.  There's plenty of YouTube watchers complaining about
whenever some YouTube personality says "Alexa, switch off the light,"
their own Alexa does it.

I don't have any of those spying devices, but when I try speech control
on my phone, it's very poor at recognising what I say.  I notice
Samsung's one is much better than Google's, but I could only use
Samsung's to do something like dictate a SMS.  I can easily just use a
messenger app that just lets me send a recorded sound bite.  It's also
a right pain to work out what command it expects you to use to do what
action.  I prefer actually using real light switches, anyway.
