Apple has agreed to a $95 million settlement in a class-action lawsuit alleging that its voice assistant, Siri, unintentionally recorded private conversations due to accidental activations.
The lawsuit claimed that these recordings were sometimes shared with third parties, potentially leading to targeted advertisements. While Apple denies any wrongdoing, it has settled to avoid further litigation costs.
