It's clearly a misstep on Apple's part, but I think their intentions were at least clearly benign. Note that Apple do not link your Siri information to your Apple ID, they do not use it for any other purpose than improving Siri, they keep it only for 6 months and you can delete it (and change your identifier) at any time.
But they definitely should let people choose whether their data is stored to help improve Siri, and whether it will be managed by humans.
- majewsky 7y ago> Apple do not link your Siri information to your Apple ID, [...], they keep it only for 6 months Are you sure about that? A quote in the article reads: > [Apple] says it keeps recordings for six months before removing identifying information from a copy that it could keep for two years or more.
- TazeTSchnitzel 7y agoHuh… the identifying information is at least not your Apple ID, but unfortunately because Siri needs to be able to recognise the names of your contacts etc, it wouldn't be hard to reconstruct it.
