Link? Are you conflating with "500k Gmail accounts leaked [by a third party]" with Gmail having a breach?

Afaik, Google has had no breaches ever.

Their SECURITY cred is fantastic.

Privacy, not so much. How many hundreds of millions have they been fined for “incognito mode” in chrome being a blatant lie?

They don't even let you have multiple chats if you disable their "App Activity" or whatever (wtf is with that ass naming? they don't even have a "Privacy" section in their settings the last time I checked)

and when I swap back into the Gemini app on my iPhone after a minute or so the chat disappears. and other weird passive-aggressive take-my-toys-away behavior if you don't bare your body and soul to Googlezebub.

ChatGPT and Grok work so much better without accounts or with high privacy settings.

Google's most profitable branch is adsense, they don't need breaches for them to have privacy issues given that elephant sized conflict of interest.

This exactly! "Oh that gang of thieves that also sells doors has never had their house broken into"

I hate how they insist on knowing everything I do all the time, but heavens forbid the minute I'm on a VPN or shared connection I have to do unpaid manual labor (100 CAPTCHAs) to train their AI

OpenAI is running ads. Do you think they'll track less?
