Irish privacy watchdog may launch another Google investigation

Google may have to face further investigations by the Irish Data Protection Commission after reports of contractors being able to hear users’ audio footage submitted to the tech firm’s digital assistant.

The prospective measures follow a data breach notification sent to the Irish data watchdog last week. The news of the Irish DPC’s prospective investigation comes two months after Google revealed upgraded privacy and data protection features at the firm’s annual developer conference.
