@arstechnica #Google , now synonymous with #Enshittification 🙄
@arstechnica This really sounds less like an issue of it existing in two places -- since one is just on your local device (which is good) anyway -- so much as just that it's maybe slightly less obvious that the external storage exists and should be turned off for privacy.
In fact, it sounds like if turning off cloud storage actually works, this might actually be a really good thing. Some things require location. If turning off cloud storage *actually* works, this could be a great answer.
