Turns out this was all much ado about nothing and Google isn’t using your Gmail to train AI and if wanna turn all that stuff back on you can get your spam filters back
Looks like the article has been updated to suggest maybe they misread the policy.

I see people complaining that this also disabled their spam filters, though I still see new messages showing up in spam so it's still working fine for me after disabling things.

Much as the Chronicle covered last year in re San Jose St. volleyball, there's nothing organic about this. The activities of activists like Riley Gaines, Harmeet Dhillon & Bill Bock should surprise no one, thought worth noting again how badly the NYT's coverage on this topic has misinformed readers.
This incredible profile of Gaines’ rise is a fantastic read, but more importantly it highlights how when Gaines started getting media attention days after her 200m final there was an entire ecosystem devoted to media training her and supporting her there to assist in her growth. It’s not organic.
I’ve spent a lot of the last three years investigating the rise of anti-trans politics. Often, it came back to the controversy over trans women athletes.

So I teamed up with @pablo.show to look into the leading figure on the issue: Riley Gaines.

Today is the day to tell a strange story.

The long version we'll tell later, but the short version is this. In an attic, in his late great-uncle's house, @jon.inkle.co found a locked trunk. It took twenty years to open. Last summer he did.

Inside was a wiring diagram, and a stack of books.

If you're trying to convince your friends to spend time on Bluesky rather than X, maybe show them this. X is not "the public town square" or about "free speech." It's "just what Elon Musk wants you to see." If you see stuff he doesn't like he'll step in to make sure you don't see it for long.
If you scroll on X, you are only being shown what Elon wants you to see. If you create content on X, no one will see it unless Elon wants them to.

If we're not going to change vehicles, there's an easy solution for this problem: Red lights for all vehicles when pedestrians have a Walk signal. They do this in London.
No vehicle should be moving through an intersection when pedestrians are crossing.

I am well aware of every medical issue I have. I have been hyper-aware of them and trying to forget since I was six years old. I can tell you every choice and issue that got me here and I’ve been harder on myself than you could ever be. I have finally started to love my body, so don’t ruin it for me

Every time a doctor says, basically, “did you know you’re fat?” to me, I should be paid whatever it cost them to get through med school.

If you want to see people naked, see people having sex, there’s lots of people who will give you that for money. Using a machine to violate the consent of people who don’t do that is fucking gross.

Sex work is work and consent should be enthusiastic affirmative or else be respected as a no.
