Google was downloading audio listeners onto computers without consent, say Chromium users

Google was downloading audio listeners onto computers without consent before the bug was fixed, Rick Falkvinge, founder of the Pirate Party has claimed.

Writing on the website Privacy Online News, Falkvinge alleged that Google listened into the conversations of users of Chromium without consent, through a ‘black box’ of code.

The ‘black box’ code was downloaded to enable a feature that activates a search function when you say “Ok, Google,” however the code appears to have enabled eavesdropping on conversations prior to this — in order to hear the phrase.

The software is able to transmit audio data back to Google, but Google claim the code was merely downloaded without consent and knowledge, not activated.
