Data Collection by Digital Assistants: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Gary Davis:

Of course, and we took them seriously, which is the precise reason we immediately suspended the grading programme and took the important steps of bringing it all in-house, so that it is only undertaken by Apple-badged employees in Cork. We brought them in, and they have very clear instructions now in relation to the deletion of such inadvertent triggers, and we are working to ensure that we minimise them.
