Privacy nightmare not to mention solution looking for a problem.

• olyjohn 6y ago
  You know... Every time some new product comes out, I can't help but think "how are they going to use this to track my habits." And how can you blame anybody for that? Think about everything you own that is already tracking you. Your TV, your Phone, your smart speaker... all the apps you use... Can you really blame somebody for being pessimistic? You know this is a useful tool for visually impaired people, but I can't help but think that nobody should have to give up their privacy in order to have some level of equality. That is total horseshit IMO.

  What specific aspects of the design do you consider to a "privacy nightmare"? Typically on-device computing is lauded from a privacy perspective when compared to cloud equivalents.

    Doing it on-device, and storing it on-device are 2 different things. Shopping data is the most valuable. It is the end result of advertising. What ad caused you to but that specific product? Can Google show a competitors ad to you?
