Cox Media Group's 'Active Listening' technology reportedly listens to user conversations through smartphones to tailor advertisements for them, raising significant privacy concerns.
According to the New York Post report, CMG’s AI analyzes real-time data collected via conversations across more than 470 sources, creating detailed consumer profiles for targeted ads.
Despite CMG's claims, major partners like Google and Meta distanced themselves, with Google removing CMG from its Partner Program and Meta stating that CMG is under review.
All major tech companies involved, including Facebook and Amazon, have denied using customer microphones to assist Cox Media Group's supposed listening practices.
