I'm getting tired of Google making all decisions. With each release they are adding more useless functions that by some odd chance helps them access more of my data.
New function in Android 13: UnmuggDroid: by always having the mic on, Google can detect when you are being mugged and contact the authorities. We have also removed the possibility of turning off the GPS, to provide everyone a better user experience.
There have been apps actually doing this on both Android and iOS (e.g. the Spanish football app).
But everyone have been quick to plug this hole. Android now warns you if this happens, and Google has thrown out apps that did this (unfortunately mostly legitimate recording apps).
You are free to test this yourself: talk a whole week about your new dog and how you are desperate to find good dog food and see what happens.
(Mentioning dog food since this is how one YouTuber tested this with Cortana on PC)
Just an anecdote, and probably more on topic: Some western reporter changed her WeChat (Chinese chat app & more) password to fkCCP. 10 minutes later her account was deleted.
Which is obvious when you see them long before they see you, and when they do, begin to bubble stuff.

New functions in Android 13:
AlwaysSafe: by always having the mic on, Google can detect when you are being mugged and contact the authorities.
CleaySky: GPS is now always active to provide a better user experience. Family accounts also share their location with each other in real-time!
FastBrowse: we use Google servers to compress all your browsing traffic (this includes 3rd party browsers) to minimize data usage and reduce latencies.
BigMac: All devices will now use randomized MAC addresses for wifi and Bluetooth to improve privacy. (For the technical reasons this function will only work if you are a Nest costumer or have a Google Home device).

(This is a joke people. Although, Google being Google, I can picture this happening)
