Newer Echo devices moved processing off the device. On those, turning off recording storage disables Voice ID and reduces functionality. This is a real cost, not a free win, and the user should be told before they flip it rather than after.

Don't Train On Me puts all of them in one checklist in a panel beside your browser, walks you through them one at a time, and helps you confirm your privacy settings on the ones that expose a setting it can read. Free, no account, and nothing you tick leaves your machine.
