Microsoft admits contractors listen to Skype, Cortana chats
Microsoft has admitted that third-party contractors listen to your voice conversations on Skype and virtual assistant Cortana.
The revelation came after Motherboard found contractors were listening to audio from both Skype and Cortana, including sensitive and personal conversations of Microsoft customers.
