Interesting to see how this plays out in the courts.


"Google is facing fresh backlash over privacy concerns — this time involving Gemini, its AI assistant, and new settings the company rolled out last month.

A proposed class-action lawsuit filed on Tuesday in federal court in San Jose, California and first reported by Bloomberg, accuses the company of unlawfully turning on Gemini across Gmail, Google Chat, and Meet, effectively allowing its AI to monitor and analyze users’ private messages and attachments.

The complaint alleges that Google activated Gemini by default in October of this year without alerting users or asking for consent. While Google provides an option to turn off the tool, the suit says such action requires digging through layers of privacy settings that most users never see."

The smart thing to do is settle before it gets to the courts where any evidence may be presented.

If I was their attoney my advice would be do a settlement with an NDA and prevent the thing getting out in the MSM big time.

Search for any term on Google and then watch YouTube, see if you get ads related to what you searched for.

It’s a proposed class action law suit so far not an actual one wait to see if turns into one

wait until the boys in the Brussels hear about this, they'll get all worked up and see if they can fine Google make some money. The EU technocrats love fining online businesses.

It is a short cut to not spending millions to develop the thing that already exists good plan of action
