A few weeks ago, I explicitly disabled it everywhere I could find within account.google.com and I’ve not used anything gemini since. Now I get this email and find it enabled on my devices.
By default Gemini has permissions to access everything on screen, view your contacts/messages, and can be used from the lockscreen…
I’m not all that surprised; but I’m still annoyed. Especially with the opt-out of data collection/access after it’s been given access to everything.
Yeah. I’m fucked sadly. I might call and yell at their phone reps. But I doubt it would ever get me anywhere.
Yeah. Uh. Hindsight is 20/20 and all that but don’t buy phones from the carrier.
