A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

I don't use Gemini nor chrome, will they still track me?
Yes.
I was going to try to answer this, but I'd just be copy pasting the article. There's no real possible TLDR.
Which is probably by design, but still.
It's not so much about whether or not they are recording data on you. If you are using an Android device, they are collecting info about you for sure. It's about how much data you allow them to collect by using their apps. Using any of the Gapps allows them to collect some information about you. From the Play Store on down to Keep, they are collecting whatever info they can.
