Comment on I still don’t think companies serve you ads based on spying through your microphone

  It kind of sounds like that article is about the “hey Siri” feature getting activated accidentally, like if it picks up something that sounds similar to the trigger phrase and starts recording

  Which is still a big security/privacy issue, but not exactly the same as if they’re just turning the microphone on whenever they want to listen to you and serve you ads

    But most likely they use all of those recordings accidental or not to serve you targeted ads, like Google does.
