That's crazy, but believable. I have a pair of Bose 700's kicking around that one of my kids uses, but they don't have the app. I wonder how they can potentially consent for data collection without breaking any data collection laws.
I mean. They put out all the disclaimers, collect the data anyway, and if they get sued they bury the person suing in paper, or if the person looks like they might wind up effecting a ruling that changes the legal interpretation in a way that is disadvantageous to the company, they settle out of court.
That way the courts never change the interpretation of the laws in a way that harms them, and bought politicians won’t do that. Plus a company that can legally record you can also just freely share those recordings with the police, so politicians aren’t going to impede that.
Things will get very funny in a few years when “AI” gets cheap enough that all those recordings wind up processed, tagged, and automatically shared with law enforcement or marketers.
It’s only a matter of time before saying “I want pizza” in the privacy of your own home results in a text from a national pizza chain.
