Plus the options are frequently hidden and unclear.
I thought disabling One Drive on my Windows machine would keep it from syncing to the cloud. Nope, it just changed where the files were stored but Windows copies it to One Drive even when One Drive isn't running.
In the case of google, I assume that turning off the Gemini bullshit doesn't have any impact on it copying all the content to their servers even if you don't see it happening.
I don't understand why users and our justice system let them get away with this. This is malicious. Your operating system is literally literally malware. It does not respect your choices and it steals your information.
That's just untrue though, onedrive doesn't work like that. I'm not saying Microsoft doesnt steal data either, but onedrive isn't required for that. In fact it can suck so hard it won't sync shit while running.
Defender can literally submit anything it wants to Microsoft by default and doesn't hide it.
It absolutely does work like that.
