Apple settles $95 million class action lawsuit over Siri privacy claims

Apple has settled a class action lawsuit for $95 million, where plaintiffs claimed the company recorded private conversations through Siri. The settlement allows affected users to receive up to $20 per Siri-enabled device. Following the settlement, Apple stated it has never sold Siri data or used it for marketing. The company emphasized that it does not retain audio recordings unless users opt in to improve Siri. Apple's statement aimed to clarify misunderstandings after the settlement led some to believe the allegations were confirmed. A similar lawsuit against Google’s Voice Assistant is also ongoing.
