Starting July, Google's AI assistant Gemini will have access to even more apps on your device—even if you don't actually use it. But you can prevent it.

    Went to turn it off.

    Apparently I already did. Marvelous.

    Direct Link to settings: https://myactivity.google.com/product/gemini

    Their dumb redirect link didn’t work for me, probably because of adblock.

      “Not available for my account type”

      Since I use workspace, I have to go to Admin Console -> Generative AI -> Gemini app -> Service status -> OFF for everyone

    I’m okay if it has access to everything, makes it easier to find the porn I was looking for.

      I don’t like to be reminded of the porn I was looking for. Google showing me ads based on my porn habits is what sent me down the privacy and security path I’ve been on since.

    I was able to send WhatsApp with Assistant since the beginning. What is the deal if Gemini does it?
