Live Translation with AirPods is not going to be available in the EU. This means that it doesn't use on-device AI model and the microphones forward everything to remote servers 🤯

@Kierkegaanks Yes, if you consent to send your voice to remote servers, people you pass by might not like it.

@mysk Right. *You* might be fine with *your* biometric data (specifically voice; I'm pretty sure that counts as biometric under a reasonable definition of biometric) being uploaded to who knows where for processing, but that doesn't mean that others around you are fine with it.
That's a problem with a lot of third-party data processing, actually; just because I, let's say, share something with you, does not mean I consent to your sharing it with a third party.

@mkj @mysk @Kierkegaanks with the absurd amount of breaches happening, anything you share with even the most honest company might as well be shared with the world. They should minimize the amount they collect from you but they won't, and many are turning to forced arbitration to skirt their liability.

@jordanjoesrtar Oh yes, the possibility of breaches is its own bucket of worms. And services absolutely can be designed to collect a minimum of data and throw it away immediately after first use. I was speaking more generally, though; for example, I might be fine emailing a friend about our upcoming get-together to agree on a time and place, but that doesn't mean I'm fine with my friend publishing the specifics of our plans for the world to see.
