    The .plist doesn’t appear malicious, but I wouldn’t ideally be installing random profiles like this from random places.

    Pardon me asking but since this setting is on the client, how one is sure that it is even considered/respected on the server?

    Why isn't this just an option for users to enable in Settings?

    By disabling this are you hurting the ability for Siri to understand you better? Is there any negative impacts?

    Edit: Sorry for asking an important question. Blocking some of the Windows spy junk causes some issues with apps.

    why don't you just disable Siri?

    At Apple: "Ah, another request to not log anything, make sure you log everything."
