If it's Apple then I'm sure there is no off button. Of course, you would be able to put it on a switch controlled outlet. I've yet to see a full round of pictures of it. Only the front and a partial profile where you can see a cord coming out of the back. Having it on a switch doesn't seem like an all bad idea though.

I'm sure there will be network tests done and they should be able to clearly that it's communicating, but everything should be encrypted so it's not likely we'll know what it's communicating. We might see traffic but don't know if it's Siri or a playlist update.
