It's not only location data, but also the words spoken over these devices that's available for casual perusal....a recent acquaintance mentioned working for a Google subsidiary meant signing a non-disclosure agreement that stipulated their lead sheet came from recorded user conversations. "They record everything. I literally know everything about the person I'm selling to."

You believe CP is evil. You believe privacy is sacred. You are Tim Cook. What do you do?

If this is a sincere effort, clearly Apple has failed to thread the needle. This announcement could also be a fumbled attempt to reframe what is already a common practice at the company, to get ahead of a leak. I heard from a friend who's related to an Apple employee that Apple scans the mountains of data on its servers, already, for "market research". The claims otherwise... marketing gambits
