Are Phones and Smart Speakers Listening to You? Cox Media Group Claims They Can | Cord Cutters News
(cordcuttersnews.com)
Services that "listen" for commands like Siri and Alexa have to be, by default, always listening, because otherwise they would not be able to hear the activate command. They are supposed to dump the excess data like anything that came before the activation command, but that's just a promise. There are very few laws protecting you if that promise turns out to be a lie. The best you can get is likely small restitution through a class action lawsuit (if you didn't waiver right to that by agreeing to the Terms of Service, which is more often than not, now).
Of fucking course they're listening.
