Google confirms its latest update can scan all your photos to “use actual images of you and your loved ones” in AI image generation. That means Gemini seeing who you know and what you do. You likely have tens or hundreds of thousands of photos. They’re all exposed if you update.

It's so easy to install! You just need to be in the 3% of smartphone owners who actually have one! EASY!

That doesn't mean it's difficult to install though.

Cool, I have a Samsung S23fe, please feel free to install it for me. I'll wait.

Admittedly, being facetious there, but my point is that if it requires a specific device that most people don't have to install, then it is not easy to install for most people, because it literally cannot be.

My point is if something is impossible to do, that doesn't make it difficult. It makes it impossible. Those are two different things.
