Does Apple owe you money?

Ever had a conversation near your Apple device and then suddenly been targeted with ads for the same things you were discussing?

If you answered “Yes.” and “All the time.” Apple may owe you money!

The tech giant just settled a class action lawsuit alleging that Siri, its virtual assistant, was snooping on you…to the tune of $95 MILLION!

The suit claimed that Siri could be activated and record conversations without consent and send your private info to third parties and was confirmed by an independent investigation, according to the Guardian.

Apple denies any wrongdoing but if you had a Siri-equipped Apple device between September 17, 2014, and December 31, 2024 and had your “confidential conversations” recorded and shared by Apple, you could receive $20 per device, up to five devices.

Those who qualify may have already received a postcard in the mail regarding the settlement….if you haven’t, but believe you are eligible, then fill out the LopezVoiceAssistantSettlement.com.
