Potential members of a class-action lawsuit are being told to apply for their share of a now-approved $95 million settlement, if they owned a device with Siri that could've recorded a private conversation. The email, seen by AppleInsider, advises that the recipient is identified as potentially being a member of the settlement class, based on Apple's records, and could be entitled to receive the patent. The suit was filed after reports surfaced claiming that human contractors were used by Apple to review private or sensitive recordings, made as part of a quality assurance program to improve Siri accuracy.
