$95,000,000 has been settled upon and is sitting in a fund for distribution to those affected.
If you recieved the above email Monday morning, May 12, 2025, and you utilized Siri between September 17 and December 31, 2014, rest assured that your Apple computer device was not only providing helpful and entertaining conversation but also harvesting that conversation and sharing it with third parties without your consent.
While Apple asserts that it was purely an accidential activation of Siri conversation collection and denies that Apple did anything improper or unlawful, the United States District Court of the Northern District of California, Lopez v. Apple Inc. lawsuit, Case No. 4:19-cv-04577-JSW, begs to differ.
Use the codes on the email or postcard sent May 12, 2015 with a Claim Identification Code and a Confirmation Code notifying you about the Settlement, when making a claim. If you lost or did not recieve the email and believe that you have been violated you can still attempt to make a claim.
Go to the Submit a Claim page to make a claim and following the instruction on how to submit a Claim Form.
Of course, if you do collect the $20.00 per Siri enabled device you waive the right to sue Apple, Inc for further damages related to data collection between September 17 and December 31, 2014.
And if you did recieve the notice with the codes to validate your claim, you can always opt out as not to be included on the list of recipients. If you do nothing you will be bound by the settlement.
