A useful feature of Apple's wireless AirPods, designed to help hearing impaired, can also be used to engage in eavesdropping - and people's reactions are mixed. 苹果的无线耳机可是非常实用，不仅可以用来助听功能，而且还可以用于监听——而人们对此的反应不同。 The feature Live Listen was released with iOS 12, and according to Apple, can be used with AirPods to turn your iPhone iPad, or iPod touch into a microphone - which can then send sound to your AirPods. 根据苹果公司的消息， 随着系统iOS 12开启了Live Listen的功能，苹果无线蓝牙耳机AirPod可以将你的苹果手机，平板iPod变成麦克风——可以把声音传送到耳机。 “Live Listen can help you hear a conversation in a noisy area or even hear someone speaking across the room,” the website states. 网站上称：“Live Listen（实时监听）功能能够在一个吵杂的环境中听清楚对话，甚至可以听到某人在对面房间中的说话。” It's an accessibility feature mainly designed for the benefit for the hearing impaired. 这项功能主要是为听力损害人群设计的福利。 However, as some users have pointed out on Reddit, Live Listen also means Apple users can listen to conversations going on in another room - as long as their iPhone is in the room, they have their AirPods in and Live Listen is turned on. |
