Google Maps keeps pestering me to add my personal photos to various locations.
That is I would take some pictures on my Android 5.1 phone and Google Maps would pop a notification. Not sure when it started but this kind of camera/Google Maps "integration" was not present in 4.4.
The places of interest that Google detects are generally correct but I have zero interest in adding personal pictures to their public/private DB.
I keep declining but my anger grows.
