16 hours agoNeon, a buzzy app that pays to record your calls for AI training data, goes offline to address a security scandal
Neon's premise is simple: You allow the app to record yourself during phone calls. The company said it pays 30 cents per minute for calls with other Neon users, or half of that if the other caller isn't on Neon. In turn, the app says the data is "anonymized and sold to trusted tech companies." "Phone companies profit off your data. Now, you can too," Neon's website reads.
