Popular dolls transmit kids’ conversations to US military contractor

“Once children talk to their toys, that voice data is sent to Nuance, a voice analysis firm that reportedly powers Siri and Samsung’s S Voice. It also holds contracts with the US military.  Both toys also accompany abysmal privacy policies that ultimately defer to Nuance’s Privacy Policy, which states that the company uses collected data to improve its products. One of its products, Nuance Identifier, is a ‘highly accurate voice biometric solution that allows public security officials to quickly and easily identify known individuals through their voice within large audio data sets.’ Law enforcement can use the software to identify suspects by their voice.”
