IKR? I read it twice looking for it.

Disclosure: we’re Privacy.Fish, so biased — but this is exactly the lane we’re building for: non-AI, private email with less provider-side data. It’s not ready for daily use yet (probably 1–2 months). If you have a minute, would you tell us your opinion on privacy.fish?

Proton mail was my choice over a year ago. So far I'm very happy with it.

Gonna turn this shit off just like all the other "improvements" they think I want or need. All I want from email is a blank space to write, rules I can create to sort MY way, and connected service. I don't want any of that AI shit.

Is this typo from the Google announcement or the author of this article?

Left Google a few months ago for Proton Mail, best decision

I was able to cancel thru to the article

"wee what matters most"????

I'm waiting for my current vpn service to expire and I will probably upgrade my Proton

Yep, it does take a bit of time.

Every site that I changed my email address felt like a small victory. There were a couple that wouldn't let me change easily so I just unsubscribed, another endocrine boost.

Just got my account there 4 days ago.

These "improvements" are not improvements. Google, leave it alone, or at least make the changes optional.

I switched to Proton Mail. More privacy.

True! That's even worse!

I dont like an AI reading my mail Do you?

Oh god no. Gmail is brutal enough without being “assisted” by AI. I need to know how to turn it off.

I will definitely opt out of this. I can read and write. I certainly don’t need some AI software writing my replies.

Thanks for this.

Oh, this seems bad. I had no idea Google had control of my urine too, but I guess it was only a matter of time 🤷‍♀️

They just keep pissing me off.

Nope… and nope!

Tax the rich!

bye, bye gmail!!

This has already happened I saw AI suggesting how o should respond to my emails with a correspondent

GMail has never worked right, and this won't fix it.

Did AI also write this article?

It's going to be a tremendous pain in the ass, but I think this tears it. I have to start cutting google (including a ~25 year old email address) out of my life.

Good article 👍 I don’t really know what to think of all these new google features it feel kinda off to me.. but we will see

Google has completely turned its back in its original prime directive - don't be evil.

Honestly, I don't care. I've taken as many Google apps or turned them off on all my devices. Google is just another name for political American establishment surveillance company.

If you could fix copying and pasting bullet points that would be great. See also randomly changing back to the default font.

Can we opt out of AI in Gmail?

Time to change your provider We are beyond big brothers it’s now total control Email answers coordinated to best fit Google first

Key sentence, privacy intrusion Is not even the debate It’s control! How can I trust Google to decide what is best for me “But these changes are being rolled out with little debate as to the pros and cons. Most are enabled by default. Users can opt out, but most won’t.”

utterly stupid!

Selling our data to pedophiles fvck Ai

😡😡😡

I do like feeling empowered 😀 on to buy a photo stick!

It wasn't that hard to stop using my gmail. Seems heading to Proton a year ago was a great choice.

Proton!

OMG

I wish Google had taken a different path in life, but they are shuving ai down our throats and I hope every ditches them

Google is really speed running that shift to “be evil”

That was about 15 years ago.

Bye Google.

Well your article is a complete load of shit... "you can opt out" you write... but then fail to tell us how to fucking opt out so AI never gets at our inbox. Fucks sake, do your fucking jobs for fucks fucking sake. Cunts.

Yup. Protonmail.

A Canadian alternative to G🇺🇸🇺🇸gle soon… Then it’ll be “ T🇺🇸🇺🇸dle🇺🇸🇺🇸 M🇺🇸therfuckers ! ⚔️🇨🇦⚔️🇨🇦⚔️🇨🇦⚔️🇨🇦⚔️🇨🇦⚔️🇨🇦

The new interface for my #Fitbit is 🤢🤮🤮🤮 thanks to #Google

If this continues, I won’t use Apple, either. I don’t use Siri, or Apple AI. Also don’t use my Apple Watch (a gift) for tracking. Might make it a few more months. I still have a 2002 vehicle without a computer. If my CPAP machine gets connected to Google I will choose to continue to breathe.

You idiots seem to really have a finger on the pulse of the nation.

Already turned off the AI bs for Gmail. Don't need that AI in my inbox..

I expect google to fuck-over every user to the limit...and then some.

Fuck AI fuck Google! Fuck the IDF fuck Israel

go back to email of the 70s and 80s!

Even though apple phones are not the full answer I'm getting rid of my Samsung for an iPhone before I'm forced to switch to google messages.

I'm terrified Google is about to pull some bullshit with Drive and I'll lose my book. I need to get awaaaaay D':

Oh, thank you. I'll check it out :>

Oh, fuck that

This is why I ditched Google Workspace. Get out now. Proton Mail is privacy focused.

"Securely and privately"......

Ok that’s fucking creepy. Time to go elsewhere.

Fk ai and data centers!

Used to be "don't be evil" now it's "do good" for you profit marginalized world.

For the worse.... But you don't care about that, you clanker loving shitbags.

Hell no! I don't want or need AI for anything.
