The difference is you don't put your data in Google's cloud, they can't sell it. With this Apple change on your local device, you don't have any recourse other than get a different phone.
Also, Google sells your data already don't they? Probably not a great counterpoint.
Again, the only thing different here is that when you upload a photo to the cloud, Apple scans it on device before the file is uploaded, while Google scans it on their server after it is uploaded.
Nothing is happening to files you don't attempt to upload to the cloud.
Also, if Google is selling everyone's data to third party data brokers, it's news to me.
>Nothing is happening to files you don't attempt to upload to the cloud.
I am aware, but because the scanner now exists on the device, they have the capability of scanning images on your device regardless of whether or not you upload it to the cloud if they so choose to OR ARE ORDERED TO. Do you not see the difference in capability?
So you are saying Google can access your device at any time and pull all data from it, even if you didn't upload it to their servers!? No thanks on either. I'm not sure "other companies can do it too," is a great counterpoint either.
Do you think it's likely they will do so?
