 I was talking about a youtube video on the last days in WW-II with my wife. My I-Phone was about 2 feet away and SIRI started asking me questions. I deactivated SIRI on the spot.The link has the video I had just watched (not on the I-Phone) Big Brother seems to be getting very invasive. |

| #20 Eh... android is based on Linux... deep down. What we need, is more protective laws like HIPPA (which has it's own problems I know...) which protect people's information from Big Tech. Laws which pierce the corporate veil and can hold corporate executives personally liable - including prison time for willful violations. I know - that has a snowball's chance in hell of getting thru... what with the line for congresscritters to service big-tech executives so long. |

| #18 Blackberry killed its industry dominance doing that.. I still have a Playbook. Andoid is developed from a Linux base -- but iOS is developed from a Unix base. |

| #17 Still have my flip phone; reading stuff like this does nothing to make me want to upgrade. |

| #16 I would not have an iPhone but Google's Android operating system is probably just as bad if not worse. Somebody needs to develop a phone that runs with Linux. |

| #12 I've had Siri off from day one. Every once in a while an update turns it back on. When I talk to me dog during our dogwalks (Sadie) Siri stops the music and asks me to repeat, letting me know its on again. Horrible system. And Apple is currently advertising increased security. Well they can start with not turning Siri on when you don't want the thing on. Starting to feel like a hipster and wanting an old flip-phone and iPod. |

| #7 Apple wants its next gazillion dollar business to be Healthcare. Robin Cook wrote a medical thriller on this theme back in 2014 - 'Cell.' |

| #6 Siri or no, your iPhone records far more than you realize. Apple wants its next gazillion dollar business to be Healthcare. Guess what type of signals they're collecting about you? |

| #5 Wierd and really creepy... Sounds like Siri might have mis-interpreted what you were talking about... "Siri, where are the terrorists?" response prompts outrage from law enforcement Still I don't use Siri... |

| #4 I am going to be feeling creepy about this for a long long time. |

| #3 SIRI was asking questions like a policeman would investigating a murder. |

| #2 Story was in first person mode. So not the guy reading but the guy who wrote the story. |

| #1 In the youtube movie the narrator was like one of 1,500 out of 120,000 who in a huge battle fought their way through Russian lines to US area. He just made it across the Elba to the US side and a renegade german solider shot him in the shoulder for his Iron Cross because US troops were paying $12 for them. The rest of his Panzer crew beat the renegade to death then took him to a US field hospital. SIRI started asking me questions about this when I told it to my wife. |
