That's not for voice recognition, it's to replace the headphone SPEAKERS because it's so windy on the bridge. The thing sits on the bone just in front of your ear. It's a really funny sensation but works well. But I assume the same system w

You americans get way to hung up on this freedom of speech thing, it's not some all trumping right that overrides everything else. Libel laws for example, limit our free speech. Another definition of rights is set out in the UDHR, article 5
