It's much easier for apple to have shared the data that your friend watched Telemundo for 24 hours and thus either has a friend with them that speaks Spanish or is learning Spanish

Or for the Facebook app on their phone to have noticed another app get installed with those details

Its not the microphone

If you're not using a smart TV connected to an apple account or an app on the phone to watch Telemundo the only way they could even have that data is if they fucking recorded it using the microphone of your phone. ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Even if not for nefarious reasons, the mic is always listening for the voice activation prompt for when you want it to listen and talk to you.
