Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment

Data Collection by Digital Assistants: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Gary Davis:

Of course. As part of our statement that we issued at the end of August, we indicated that we would be putting in place a programme to identify more inadvertent triggerings of Siri and delete them where we hear them. Where a grader would hear something of that nature now - they are all Apple-badged employees - they are under instructions to delete them when they hear them.
