User ID: 83784194 Canada 07/02/2022 05:40 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Google announced Friday it would delete users’ location history when they visit abortion clinics, domestic violence shelters and other places where privacy is sought. Quoting: WTF ? 83787952 “If our systems identify that someone has visited one of these places, we will delete these entries from Location History soon after they visit,” Jen Fitzpatrick, a senior vice president at Google, wrote in a blog post. “This change will take effect in the coming weeks.” Other places from which Google will not store location data include fertility centers, addiction treatment facilities, and weight loss clinics. The announcement comes a week after the US Supreme Court made the tectonic decision to strip American women of constitutional rights to abortion, leading a dozen states to ban or severely restrict the procedure and prompting mass protests across the country. Activists and politicians have been calling on Google and other tech giants to limit the amount of information they collect to avoid it being used by law enforcement for abortion investigations and prosecutions. Fitzpatrick also sought to reassure users that the company takes data privacy seriously. “Google has a long track record of pushing back on overly broad demands from law enforcement, including objecting to some demands entirely,” she wrote. “We take into account the privacy and security expectations of people using our products, and we notify people when we comply with government demands.” Concerns over smartphone data and reproductive rights arose even before the Supreme Court ruling, when several conservative US states in recent months passed laws that give members of the public the right to sue doctors who perform abortions — or anyone who helps facilitate them.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 83787952 LOL if you don't know that a smart phone is nothing but a tracking device that also can make phone calls then there is no hope for you. Fun fact, it also monitors every thing that is said near it. If you have a conversation with a smart phone in the room then you didn't have a private conversation. |

You leftards have only yourself to blame because that wasn’t good enough. You had to include abortion up to the minute of birth. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 83788110 07/02/2022 05:56 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Two questions about Google's new commitment to delete location tracking at abortion clinics: 1) so while SCOTUS claimed abortion was protected by a woman's right of privacy, Google recorded those "private" visits to abortion clinics, and now that SCOTUS has held abortion is NOT protected by the right of privacy, Google deletes that tracking (backwards thinking?); and 2) when Google deletes location tracking of visits to abortion facilities, will those untracked Planned Parenthood offices become the location of choice for drug deals? Just asking. |

THIS BEGS THE QUESTIONS- DOES GOOGLE HAVE THE ABILITY TO ADD PEOPLE TO GOOGLE HISTORY? Of course they do. They can manipulate their data however they like. They could, using their current AI tech, manufacture videos and audio of you committing a crime, forge your location data, and search history. Try getting out of that prosecution. |
