Microsoft recently began rolling out updates to its user consent experience for voice data, which will give customers more meaningful control over whether their voice data is used to improve products. These updates allow customers to choose if people can listen to recordings of what they said while speaking to any Microsoft products and services that use speech recognition technology.
