Audio hardware maker Sonos has removed a promise from its US user agreement that it wouldn’t sell users’ personal information, which went unnoticed until eagle-eyed users spotted the change.
The pledge, which had been in all previous versions of the user agreement, was excised in a revision dated June 2024. The change was first noticed on a Reddit forum devoted to Sonos gear soon afterwards, and garnered immediate negative reactions.
The original wording, “Sonos does not and will not sell personal information about our customers,” is still present in user agreements for other countries. At least for now.
