Apple's proposed settlement of $95 million follows allegations that Siri recorded conversations without user consent, specifically violating California's consent laws for audio recordings.
The complaint highlights that Siri can be triggered by various sounds—not just the designated 'Hey Siri' command—opening the possibility for unintended recordings.
Users have reported that data collected through Siri interactions led to targeted advertisements, indicating a potential misuse of recorded conversations beyond improving Siri.
Despite Tim Cook's insistence on privacy, this case raises significant concerns about Apple's actual practices regarding user consent and audio data collection.
