You can be selective about it. There is GPS to tell you where you are, microphone to tell you how many people are around, motion sensor, light sensor to sense if you’re in a pocket, etc.
It doesn’t have to be constant, it could even be on demand.
Personally, I am resigned to the fact that this kind of surveillance will happen. Technology cannot be slowed down or stopped artificially. There are just too many actors (not just Apple) to expect all of them to act in good faith. On top of that, the governments all over the world are salivating over this technology too. I don’t trust governments will curtail technology - and thus themselves - via policy. And even if one does, there is always another. This is almost nothing new in the UK, for example.
I’m not optimistic in the direction we have been heading for the ladt 15 years or so.
