Everything you've ever said to Siri/Cortana has been recorded...and I get to listen to it.


I started a new job today with Walk N'Talk Technologies. I get to listen to sound bites and rate how the text matches up with what is said in an audio clip and give feed back on what should be improved.


At first, I though these sound bites were completely random. Then I began to notice a pattern. Soon, I realized that I was hearing peoples commands given to their mobile devices.


Guys, I'm telling you, if you've said it to your phone, it's been recorded...and there's a damn good chance a 3rd party is going to hear it.


I heard everything from kiddos asking innocent things like "Siri, do you like me?" to some guy asking Galaxy to lick his butthole. I wish I was kidding.


Just a heads up Reddit. I've heard more text-to-speech sexting than I care to. (You've never hear something sexy until you've heard a guy with a slight Indian accent slowly enunciate "I want to have sex with you" to his texing app)
