Google vows to do more to protect your voice data

YouTube and its parent company Google have been hit with a $170 million fine for violating a children's privacy law. Google came under fire after media reports revealed that its contractors listened to customer audio recordings captured by the company's virtual assistant this year. Now, Google wants to be more transparent with you about "how your data is used and why." The search giant released a blog post on Monday promising to do more to protect your privacy when using its Voice assistant, saying, "It's clear that we fell short of our high standards." The Google Assistant is available on Google Home speaker along with Android and iOS smartphones.
