Hey folks!! Google has decided to automatically opt you in to train off your Gmail data. This allows them to gain access to all your private messages, and attachments to train AI models. To turn it off, it must be done in two places! #AI #Google #HandsOffMyData

A screenshot of a Google Workspace page titled “Our privacy commitments to all Workspace users.” The page has a white background and contains several bullet points explaining how user data is handled. At the top, there is a short paragraph explaining that generative AI does not change Google’s foundational privacy protections and that users keep control over their data.

Below the intro, four bullet points appear.
The first bullet point is labeled “Your data is your data” and explains that content placed into Google Workspace, such as emails and documents, belongs to the user and can be deleted or exported.
The second bullet point is labeled “Your data stays in Workspace” and states that Google does not use Workspace data to train or improve AI models that power Bard, Search, or other Google systems outside Workspace. The phrase “without permission” within this bullet is highlighted with a red rectangular outline.
The third bullet point is labeled “Your privacy is protected” and describes how interactions with features like spam protection and spelling suggestions are anonymized or aggregated. It also mentions that anonymized data may be used to improve Workspace features.
The fourth bullet point says that user content is not used for ads targeting.

At the bottom, a short paragraph mentions that independent auditors validate Google’s privacy practices, and the words “independent auditors validate our practices” appear as a blue hyperlink.

A screenshot of the Gmail Settings page under the “General” tab. The page has a white background and contains many email preference options listed vertically.

Near the middle, there is a section labeled “Smart features.” This entire section is outlined by a thick red rectangle. Inside the red box, there is an empty checkbox next to the text “Turn on smart features in Gmail, Chat, and Meet.” The description explains that enabling this allows Google to use content and activity from Gmail, Chat, and Meet to provide personalized smart features.

Above this section, two settings appear grayed out. These are “Nudges” and “Smart Reply.” Each option has an info icon next to it. Both options are unavailable until smart features are turned on.

Below the red outlined area, another red rectangle highlights a link labeled “Manage Workspace smart feature settings.” The accompanying text explains that smart feature controls can be managed across Workspace apps like Gmail, Chat, Meet, and Drive.

Across the top of the screen, tabs such as General, Labels, Inbox, Accounts and Import, Filters and Blocked Addresses, and others are visible, showing that the user is inside Gmail’s broader settings interface.

Pussy Riot has always been based.

John Breen @acab.dad · 3d

Looks like Russia is about to declare Pussy Riot an extremist organization

Singing in the streets is not extremism. Doing street actions is not extremism.
Extremism is invading other countries and committing war crimes. Being anti-fascist and wearing a Pikachu costume... is not extremism.
Pussy Riot have always stood - and will continue to stand - with Saint Nikolai, who wasn't afraid to throw a piece of raw meat at the feet of Ivan the Terrible himself, calling him out: "You eat human flesh and blood."
And if telling the truth is "extreme," then hold my Red Bull.

I’m poor & I always self-identify that way in an attempt to destigmatize & also reveal that people in ‘good’ jobs who are well-educated are often .. POOR. It’s extremely difficult to attain class mobility even when you do everything ’right’ - embarrassment is a tool of oppression.

EU is considering a social media ban for under-16s after a strong parliamentary vote backing unified age-assurance rules. Australia’s 2025 under-16 ban is shaping the discussion, but privacy concerns around ID-based verification remain high.

I’m thankful for Native Americans, our indigenous neighbors.
Thankful to have grown up around an array of ethnicities, including mixed.

Dear caucasians in the U.S. trying to forget, Native Americans are the first born.
European settlers/colonizers and followers have always been the immigrants.

Guess who's behind X accounts like RedPilledNurse or Ivanka Trump News? People outside the US. And social media companies are rewarding the creators for it. @evystadium.bsky.social has more:

Apple is anti-union.

Tesla is anti-union.

Amazon is anti-union.

McDonald's is anti-union.

Starbucks is anti-union.

Google is anti-union.

Walmart is anti-union.

These mega-corporations aren’t on workers’ side and their actions make it painfully clear.

i’m one of the people who signed onto this open letter, because i’m fed up with seeing urban legend touted as security advice.

this is normal guidance, for normal people, derived from the combined experience of over 80 security practitioners sick of seeing scare tactics used to drive clicks.
