TIL Everything you say to Siri is sent to Apple, analyzed and stored. Personal information relating to your Siri query is also sent. And Apple reserves the right to share this information with partners and related services. by ancient88in todayilearned

The potential for them was bad, yes. However, there's been no indication that Apple had nefarious intentions with what they were doing. So far they've all been either oversights or errors. At least when it comes to privacy. See: The GPS issue was a technical oversight, as was the Address Book upload dealio.

"Corporations are people my friend" j/k. Yes that interpretation could mean that you're agreeing that Apple will sell your data. What I'm saying is, there have been quite a few "Apple is violating your privacy" faux scandals in the last couple of years. Example, the GPS data snafu. In all of them, Apple has always resolved in favor of the consumer and it was mostly people overreacting or blowing stuff way out of proportion of what the problem actually was. It's not about blind trust, but about track record.

I knew this is BS when the graph showed Worldwide gross but titled it "American People..."

How would selling this information conform with that clause? It says that the partners are providing services to Apple. Selling data isn't really a service. Apple has shown a track record of caring for user privacy first in the last few years. This clause is probably about allowing Siri to access third-party services and to improve the service. If it blows up (like the last few Apple privacy 'scandals') I assume Apple will respond by clarifying that the data doesn't have any commercial purposes.

From the article: "Apple reserves the right to share it with “Apple’s partners who are providing related services to Apple.”

That doesn't imply sell for profit, but rather to me it just says that they'll share the information with Wolfram Alpha, so Siri can query what you said, or any other related services to Apple.

I don't understand it... it's not that difficult to have a mobile site redirect that still points you to the right address. It's also some of the big sites that do it. So fucking annoying
