As most of the Lemmy users are security/privacy minded, after a question about alternative voices I’m wondering. Why would you allow a virtual assistance to spy on you constantly? (Especially when you don’t need to due to other limitations)
And as a side note, is there a way to kill Siri completely on IOS (not just go trough all app settings and disable siri there)? (company phone, so alas not jail broken, Android is rooted and GA has been removed, as is the Google app itself)
I use Siri very infrequently, and mostly for simple things.
“What time is it?” Is probably the most frequent one. Mostly if I’m walking and don’t have my watch on. It’s nicer to be able to get a quick answer through my headphones than have to take my phone out.
Timers and alarms also. But that’s about it
