Perhaps because the full title "to settle a lawsuit alleging that its voice assistant Siri routinely recorded private conversations that were then shared with third parties and used for targeted ads" was too long.
The shortened title only suggests the data only sat around on Apple's servers (which, of course, would still be a bad thing).
I guess it's partly because this dropped during the new year's period when most tech folks are not near their screens. And also partially because of the "Apple brigade" making sure this doesn't go too far.
Really sad, I hope we get it back on the front page when most folks are back online, it helps paint a picture of what this company is really all about.

I ended up seeing this on /. and was surprised it wasn't still on the front page of HN anymore. Seems to have dropped off quickly.
