- cwhiz 6y ago“private”
- rockengineer84 6y agohas Google ever made your data public?
- manquer 6y agoNot private doesn't mean public. Can google guarantee this data is not used to fuel their ad or other businesses in anyway ? Can they guarantee US Law Enforcement Agencies(LEA) will not have access without due process and informing you ? Can they guarantee LEAs from other countries will not given access to this data ?

- cwhiz 6y agoGoogle has had data leaks and hacks, yes. It’s not private unless you own it and control it. If you send it to Google it is unequivocally not private.
- minikites 6y agoWe benefit daily from all sorts of horrors, that's not a justification to keep doing horrors.

By providing ML training data, you're indirectly supporting the consolidation of power in the hands of the few who have the ability to surveil everyone and the physical might to enforce their will.
- Nasrudith 6y agoMy urine like everyone else's contains potassium and can be used to create gunpowder - does this mean I am enabling terrorists to blow people up every time I take a leak?
- minikites 6y agoIf you and millions of other people captured, packaged, and transmitted that urine to a central urine clearinghouse (similar to how Google Photos works), then yes. Innocuous activities can easily be made dangerous when those activities are centralized and scaled up to a level involving/affecting hundreds of millions of people.
- f1refly 6y agoYou mean like that one time when it tagged blacks as apes? I'm sure the users feel like they made a great deal.
- chronofar 6y agoYes, let's cherry pick this one example to invalidate all ML strides in image recognition under the guise of racism, surely that seems reasonable.
