A question about Google and Google voice

I have heard reasonable support for belief that one of the reasons that Google has implemented Google voice is a belief that voice control will be an important input path in the future. What better way to gather a sampling of a wide variety of voices and potentially a very large experimental test data set for voice recognition than to provide a service such as Google voice.

If, and I have no direct evidence to support or deny this, they are recording and saving the conversations from Google voice this raises a critical question about privacy and maybe a legal question or two.

So I am asking readers to keep their ears open for any information that would support or deny this concern.

Dave
