This device keeps Alexa and other voice assistants from snooping on you | Ars Technica — The prototype hardware consists of a Raspberry Pi 3B connected by Ethernet to the local network. It's also connected by a headphone jack to a PAM8403 amplifier board, which in turn connects to a single generic 3W speaker. The device captures network traffic using a TP-LINK TL-WN722N USB Wi-Fi dongle that creates a wireless access point using hostapd and dnsmasq as the DHCP server. All wireless IoT devices in the vicinity will then connect to that access point.
