Google is permanently disabling a feature on its new Home Mini smart speaker, which was announced last week and starts shipping next Thursday, after a reviewer discovered the device was quietly recording his conversations without his knowledge or consent.
Google blames this on a faulty button and says it is rolling out a fix while it explores a long-term solution. Google says it received only "a few reports" of the issue.
The Google Home Mini secret-recording fiasco is a major black eye at the worst possible time for Google
Google: Oops. Our track record says otherwise. Yeah, it's a faulty button.
