Data Collection by Digital Assistants: Discussion

I refer to public concern about this issue. Mr. Sunderland stated: "Voice assistants record user audio clips and convert those clips into a text form that acts as an input to online services such as search, weather, shopping" and so on. Many people have contacted members regarding verbal content recorded on their home voice device being converted into data that influences their search or advertising. That is the reality people are experiencing.
