Sure, no one is saying that. The point is that it doesn't send anything other than the stuff after the keywords back to company servers.

Or what it thinks is a keyword. Correct.

Well, obviously it operates on what it believes is a keyword. It does not have magically divine insight. Are you trying to imply they make them overly sensitive? I don't see the problem. Imagine the opposite. If they responded to less things they thought were keywords people would just think they're broken.
