Google wants its AI to see all the photos of “you and your loved ones.” Billions of users must now decide.

Kinda creepy. I was about to migrate to Immich, fortunately I’m not in the US, so I don’t get that update yet. It does seem like a lost battle, anyway :( Even if I migrate to a privacy-respecting FOSS solution, my friends, family, acquaintances and random people around me will not (well, some may). I will still be featured in their photos out of my control.
Man, I setup Immich for my whole family, a RAID6 of enterprise drives with about 10TB total available storage, and 1TB/user. I’ve got symmetrical 1Gbs fiber, too. Does anyone use it? No. The last get together I told them if anyone wanted help setting it up, I wouldn’t mind. And no takers really. I said it’s easy enough anymore with a 1TB SSD being <$100 it’d last a very long time they could back up too that, far more than Google allows… Nope…
It’s insane to me that nobody wants to change, but when these companies change on everyone, they just let it happen.
People are habits animals and some people are more habits animals than others.
not even habit…they just do what they are told, or given. even if there’s zero change in their process l, they won’t change and will just keep tapping blind
