  • iPhone users begin receiving payouts from $95 million Siri privacy settlement
    January 25, 2026, 1:04 AM EST. U.S. iPhone users are receiving payouts tied to a $95 million settlement over unlawful Siri recordings. The deal, announced last year, covers Siri-enabled devices bought between September 17, 2014, and December 31, 2024 that experienced an unintended activation. Individuals could claim up to five devices. The payout was expected to reach about $20 per device with a $100 ceiling, but final figures sit around $8.02 per device and roughly $40.10 max per participant. Direct deposits began yesterday; others may receive a prepaid card or check if chosen. The Guardian reported that Apple contractors overheard private Siri conversations during grading. Apple says recordings were used for quality assurance, not marketing, and that users opt in going forward.
