        Yes - but what else has Siri listened to - who has recorded it ? Gavin your team should ensure this never happens #teamfail #cybersecurityrisk

        Funnily enough we were talking in the office yesterday about all these 'listening devices' being taken into boardrooms, The Cabinet, Parliament etc - its disconcerting how few people seem to see this as problematic - in fact when I talk about it I get looks of 'oh he is paranoid'

        You do understand that as Defence Secretary having Siri on Always Listen is a catastrophically bad idea from a national security point of view, right?

        In the interest of openness you should have @GCHQ analyse your phone and published a report confirming that no compromise of national security took place. If someone in the armed forces with high level clearance did this they'd be breaking PERSEC. It must be investigated.

        Worrying that the Minister responsible for the country's defence has such a blasé attitude to cyber security.

        Think you’d be wiser to ask someone from Defence IT to set your phone up so you can’t be recorded via it, apps like Siri are an easy way in for hackers, especially when you don’t keep track of it being off/on

        Surely for ministers/MPs all phones are provided by inhouse IT team and locked down to prevent this and other secuirty issues. In most high secuirty positions having your own personal phone on premises or during business would be sackable offence.
