On that Guardian link: you can switch off allowing Apple to use your Siri input for training:
Settings -> Privacy & Security -> Analytics & Improvements -> Improve Siri and Dictation switch.
It has the explanatory text ‘Help improve Siri and Dictation by allowing Apple to store and review audio of your Siri and Dictation interactions from this device.’ next to it.
I’m pretty sure the initial state of this is set by your response to a specific question about it during phone setup.
- SergeAx 4y agoOnly four levels of nesting menus? How generous!
- spdustin 4y agoAs the GP remembered, the option to share training audio with Apple is presented clearly during the OOBE setup for Siri.

Apple is currently being sued because they only apply their "do not use analytics" setting to other companies analytics. Apple analytics still track you. Given that, I would not trust any privacy setting from this company.
- jrmg 4y agoI wish I could read the complaint (5:22-cv-07069 - doesn’t seem to be available online?) - but I think it’s more nuanced than that. The complaint alleges, I think, that if you switch off ‘device analytics’ on your phone (the ‘Share iPhone Analytics’ setting?), the App Store app will still send some data about your device to Apple.
- esperent 4y agoYes but only from Apple apps, and not just "some" data but apparently "all the data" as in everything you do, every click, every scroll, every button you press, it's all recorded and sent to Apple. At least according to these researchers and this lawsuit.
