I don't want Google's servers looking over my images and analyzing them. No thank you.

- tjr 11y agoThen you can't put photos on the public web at all, right?
- moeedm 11y agoWell I choose what to put on the "public web". Unlimited photo storage means all your photos.
- tjr 11y agoHow would a user be forced to upload all of their photos? I have (allegedly) unlimited storage with Flickr, but I manually upload the photos that I choose.
- moeedm 11y agoThey're not forced to, they're tempted to. And most people will. From the presentation, it looks like as soon as you take a photo it's uploaded and backed up on Google's servers.
- middleclick 11y agoThis is pretty much what I try to do. I avoid people taking photographs of me altogether or if they do, I request them to not put them on Facebook or anywhere on the Internet. It usually works if you ask kindly.
- joezydeco 11y agoSo what happens if you, say, XORed the entire image with 0xA5A5A5A5 and then uploaded it? Seems Flickr doesn't really examine the image, just the extension (.gif, .jpg, etc). I wonder what Google plans to do.
