Apple FORCING you to use what you do not want turned on

In my truck the engine noise is bad. I use a Blue Parrot headset to eliminate noise. I also USED it to place calls while driving by hitting the ear button, telling it to call (_______) name inserted here. Note I said used to.
Now to use voice command to place a call it wants to force me to use SIRI. I have never used SIRI and never will. This so-called up-grade has me livid at these big companies forcing me to use their junk that tracks me when I do not want to use it EVER.

It's tracking you whether you use Siri or not. If you have a somewhat modern cell phone it hears every conversation you have.
😲😲😲
It's all interconnected, they're just paring down what they have to interconnect.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain

Don't believe it? Just talk about something random like pink butterflies. Then later type pink b into Google and it will fill in the butterfly part. Just an example. Talk about something random or weird, then start typing it into Google and it WILL auto populate!
Just sayin
The camera on the puter is watching you now .
You can definitely control/disable these features.
Having “known” some of you for many years, I’m afraid your lives aren’t that exciting and SIRI isn’t that interested to begin with. 😀
Have a discussion with a friend about riding lawnmowers. Then go on Google or Facebook as you normally would and see how many lawnmower ads they present to you.
Here’s how you fix that- from “Siri & Search” in your settings:
In this example, I am showing the AirBnB app-
Do they have a camera that can see through black electrical tape?
News said tonight someone drove an SUV right into an Apple Store
I get no ads, I have FIREFOX and all the do not track apps I can find. I NEVER see and ad for anything anywhere. SIRI has always been turned off on my Iphones. I have never used it and do not want it. I have every single thing that they offer turned off and still use the phone for calls and texts. I do not use Google EVER. I do not go online with my phone unless it is absolutely necessary then I will use FOREFOX only. I do not use any of the apps offered even if free on my phone. My computer camera has a hunk of duct tape over the lense, I have not and never will use it and never will.
The issue is with the upgrade you can not use a blue tooth headset and VOICE COMMAND to place a call any more with out having SIRI turned on. I am not going to do it.
Im just trying to help.
Wow. Shots fired!

I hate computers with apples, siri,operating systems,routers,and earthnet cables. @everyone
I was discussing hookers with a friend on the phone, and, sure enough, the next time I got online a picture of my very angry wife appeared.
Apple, Microsoft, and Google are all evil. Period.
That's why I use my phone as little as possible, and why all my computers use Linux.
