Apple lost ground in a lawsuit that will proceed in California. As some are coming forward as whistleblowers, a US District Judge has said that Apple must face the claim that Siri violates privacy.

You may take solace in the idea that you’re not using an Apple device, but the sad case is that other cases are in various stages against Facebook, Google, Samsung, and Amazon.
