    How to opt out

    Opting out requires you to change settings in two places, so I’ve tried to make it as easy to follow as possible. Feel free to let me know in the comments if I missed anything.

    To fully opt out, you must turn off Gmail’s “Smart features” in two separate locations in your settings. Don’t miss one, or AI training may continue.

    Step 1: Turn off Smart Features in Gmail, Chat, and Meet settings

    Step 2: Turn off Google Workspace Smart Features

    It’s not “Gmail can read your emails” … Gmail has been reading your emails for years.

    These opt-out and opt-in rules should be punishable by law. I mean its the nature of humanity. We don’t care.

    A brief comparison: in Germany, you are only an organ donor if you opt in. In France, you are always an organ donor unless you opt out. Guess which country has more donors.
