I think the most important piece of info isn't even in this article. The Verge article I submitted[0] had this quote:
"Additionally, as The Guardian notes, while Amazon and Google allow customers to opt out of some uses of their recordings, Apple doesn’t offer a similar privacy protecting option, outside of disabling Siri entirely. That’s a particularly bad look, given that Apple has built so much of its reputation on selling itself as the privacy company that defends your data in ways that Google and Amazon don’t."
I was shocked by this because I opt out of sending analysis data to Apple at setup of my devices. I figured that would also prevent sending Siri recordings. Apparently not, though.

- akseln 7y agoDoes disabling Siri severely affect accessibility and usability for physically impaired people? Also how is this on other platforms, are disabled people forced to unfairly compromise their privacy to properly use IT today?
