Pro-tip for the privacy-conscious community: Apple enables "Listen for" Siri by default with the iOS 17 update— regardless of your existing preference. Moreover, the onboarding modal that informs users that this feature is (re-)enabled is automatically skipped because there's no call-to-action button. This means that most users will have to go out of their way to a) read the notice and to b) disable the microphone-is-always-on version of Siri
