Lauren Weinstein<p>There's a lot of confusion about <a href="https://mastodon.laurenweinstein.org/tags/Google" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Google</span></a> forcing <a href="https://mastodon.laurenweinstein.org/tags/Gemini" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Gemini</span></a> onto <a href="https://mastodon.laurenweinstein.org/tags/Android" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Android</span></a> users, but yes, it's very bad</p><p>Starting July 7, Google will be pushing Gemini down the throat of Android users by default whether they want it or not. You can jump through hoops to turn it off from various apps, but it's confusing for most users and the email Google sent about this was also confusing as hell. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt that it wasn't meant to be confusing, but<br>it was typical Google technospeak from the Bros who have no idea how ordinary people live and work.</p><p>Bottom line, despite articles trying to put a positive spin on this change, Google is forcing Gemini AI onto everyone by default rather than providing affirmative opt-in. Yes, that's evil.</p><p>Here's an article that summarizes the situation pretty well.</p><p><a href="https://tuta.com/blog/how-to-disable-gemini-on-android" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">tuta.com/blog/how-to-disable-g</span><span class="invisible">emini-on-android</span></a></p>
