Hello, with the new AI features being added into Googles services I was thinking of maybe starting a thread about how to remove data from the affected services. I feel like simply deleting my photos from Google Photos most likely wouldn’t be enough of a measure to ensure my images does not get affected or used in these AI features.
Is there any way to ensure that Google properly removes your data after deleting it?

I’m gonna keep it real with you brother. You’re never getting it truly deleted. Or at least, not likely. Big tech has shown that they HATE permanently deleting data, and will do everything in their power to not do so.
Idk…the recent Google cloud account deletion was pretty permanent. The company was lucky enough to have a backup on another cloud, which is why they aren’t SOL right now.
even if you’re data is actually deleted, you can sure it’s been processed by AI already. thinking otherwise is a pure fantasy. Google does not simply give up data. just just dont. live in your fantasy all u like though
You just contradicted yourself in the next sentence…
No, it was the client — not Google — who had a backup with another provider.
