I guess that's one reason. If I'm perfectly honest I always turn Siri off because I don't trust Siri either; but that's less of a "malicious actors" thing and more of a "it doesn't work well thing". Although to be honest, outside of driving in a car I don't really want a voice interface. With a lot of things I feel like I need to overspecify it if I have to do it verbally. Like "play this song, but play it from my spotify Liked playlist so that when the song is over it transitions to something I want" (I've never tried that since I figure siri can't do it -- just an example)
