Apple apologises for Siri recordings
Apple has apologised to its customers and will now allow users to opt out of having their recordings with voice-assistant tool Siri recorded. In recent weeks, it has emerged that contractors were employed by Apple to listen to Siri conversations, leading to privacy concerns. "We realise we haven't been fully living up to our high ideals, and for that we apologise," Apple said in a statement.
