      So, the first thing today before buy a phone that you want to use for work or if you want a bit of privacy, is check what bloatware it has pre-installed or even better, only buy an unlocked one that let you flash it and install a clean ROM, well, if available for that phone, so check the available ROMs for it too before buy it. And flash it before its first use.

          these guys should be slammed with fines till they get bankrupted.
          if they wanted to check if the "AI correctly interpreted the messages” why didn't they hired people to talk over the mics in controlled settings? legally...?
