That's a very condescending accusation you've made, but okay I'll bite. How exactly does the OS prevent this? Just to be very clear, the scenario is:

1) The app requests access to the microphone.

2) The user grants the app access to the microphone.

3) The app, now having microphone access, processes the user's voice command and does what is requested.

4) The app also uploads the voice recording to their backend and later sells the voice recording to someone else.

What mechanism in the operating system do you believe prevents (4) from occurring?
