Apple to Pay $95 Million to Settle Lawsuit Over Siri Eavesdropping Claims

Apple has agreed to pay $95 million to settle a five-year-old lawsuit alleging that its virtual assistant Siri recorded conversations of iPhone users without their consent. The lawsuit claims that Apple secretly activated Siri to eavesdrop on users for over a decade, and that some recordings were shared with advertisers to target potential consumers. Apple maintains that it did nothing wrong, but the proposed settlement resolves the matter.
