4 published verifications about Apple Inc. Apple Inc. ×

“Apple was sued because Siri was listening to users 24/7.”

Mostly False

Apple was sued over Siri privacy allegations, but not because Siri was proven or alleged to be listening to users continuously 24/7. The case centered on Siri allegedly activating unintentionally and recording private conversations without consent. That makes the claim directionally related to the lawsuit but materially exaggerates what the lawsuit actually alleged.

“Apple Inc. generated over US$391 billion in revenue in its fiscal year 2024.”

True

Apple’s reported FY2024 revenue exceeded US$391 billion. Its financial statements list net sales of US$391,035 million, which equals US$391.035 billion. Apple often rounds that to “US$391.0 billion” in public materials, but the underlying reported figure is still above the threshold in the claim.

“Apple Inc. had around US$94 billion in net income in fiscal year 2024.”

True

Apple reported fiscal 2024 net income of $93.736 billion, so describing it as around $94 billion is accurate. The figure comes from Apple’s official FY2024 financial statements and earnings release. The small difference from $94 billion is ordinary rounding, not a substantive error.

“Apple Inc. produced more than $118 billion in operating cash flow in fiscal year 2024.”

True

Apple’s reported operating cash flow for fiscal 2024 was $118.254 billion, according to its official cash flow statement and investor materials. That is above $118 billion, so the claim matches the company’s disclosed full-year figure. The fact that the amount only narrowly exceeds the threshold does not make the statement inaccurate.
