- justinschuh 10y agoPlease don't spread misinformation. Here are the facts: 1. While the Hotword module was downloaded at startup, the feature was not activated without the user explicitly enabling it via the settings menu. <https://crbug.com/500922#c6> https://crbug.com/500922#c6> 2. Downloading the module in Chromium was a bug, and it was fixed after being reported. <https://crbug.com/50922#30> https://crbug.com/50922#30> 3. The Hotword feature was dropped from Chrome not too long after, because it was an experiment that never really panned out (and was enabled by very few people).
