Apple Admits Siri Voice Data Is Being Collected And Sent To Third Parties
Paul Joseph Watson: Following controversy last month about Samsung transmitting spoken words to a third party, Apple’s terms of service clearly state that the company is following a similar process by recording and transmitting the voice data of Siri users.
In November last year we reported on how Samsung’s global privacy policy advised users of their Smart TV range that “personal or other sensitive information” in the form of spoken words was being captured and transmitted to a third party.
The controversy only blew up three months later when Samsung was forced to admit that voice data was being “sent to a server” operated by a third party during the process.
However, Apple’s iOS Software License Agreement also advises users of the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch that, “When you use Siri or
Dictation, the things you say will be recorded and sent to Apple in order to convert what you say into text and to process your requests.”
“By using Siri or Dictation, you agree and consent to Apple’s and its subsidiaries’ and agents’ transmission, collection, maintenance, processing, and use of this information, including your voice input and User Data, to provide and improve Siri, Dictation, and dictation functionality in other Apple products and services,” states the document.
The terms make it clear that Apple is carrying out the very same process that got Samsung into hot water just weeks ago.
“The iOS terms clearly state that Apple will record what you say and may send it to subsidiaries and their agents. It goes on to add that they will record the names of your contacts, your relationships with them, in-home devices, and sometimes your location,” writes Tim Pool.
