There's a few things that seem key to this:
Leaving "hey siri" and "ok google" on at all times, requires relatively noise free environment. Also, with the always on feature, you need to properly address one's phone. Simply changing Siri to "Stupidhead" would render the always on attack moot.
It's interesting but without direct access, there's only minimal information to be gleaned as commanding Siri to look up the most recent call would only allow the attack to see the most recent call with a direct LOS.
Also, this recap can be skipped by going to the original wired article:

- fuzzywalrus 11y agoI stand corrected, I assumed that you could as you can rename what Siri calls you. Learn something new every day.
