Apple to pay 95mn dollars to settle Siri privacy lawsuit
- Apple agreed to pay $95 million in cash to settle a proposed class action lawsuit claiming that its voice-activated Siri assistant violated users' privacy.
Mobile device owners complained that Apple routinely recorded their private conversations after they activated Siri unintentionally, and disclosed these conversations to third parties such as advertisers.Two plaintiffs said their mentions of Air Jordan sneakers and Olive Garden restaurants triggered ads for those products.
The class period runs from Sept. 17, 2014 to Dec. 31, 2024. It began when Siri incorporated the "Hey, Siri" feature that allegedly led to the unauthorized recordings.An attendee holds two iPhones 16 as Apple holds an event at the Steve Jobs Theater on its campus in Cupertino, California, U.S. September 9, 2024.
Lawyers for the plaintiffs did not immediately respond to similar requests. They may seek up to $28.5 million in fees, plus $1.1 million for expenses, from the settlement fund.
