I kinda appreciate a company that's known for extreme examples of tracking and data infringement actually making something opt-out by default but I'm sure they're only doing it now because the data collection isn't worth the server space anymore since they don't need the meta data from your photos anymore, they got that.

I get that, I just took a screenshot of a shady follower and suddenly realized I have porn on my phone, well that's the exact moment Google asked me if I want to turn the backup permission back on, so just know the privacy point is moot because AI is steady Live-screening your screenshots best know it!. It just happened to me!
Oh yeah, they're steady tracking shit
