Google’s ‘Secret’ Update Scans All Your Photos
AI now monitors your photos without warning.
Per one tech forum this week: “Google has quietly installed an app on all Android devices called ‘Android System SafetyCore’. It claims to be a ‘security’ application, but whilst running in the background, it collects call logs, contacts, location, your microphone, and much more making this application ‘spyware’ and a HUGE privacy concern. It is strongly advised to uninstall this program if you can. To do this, navigate to 'Settings’ > 'Apps’, then delete the application.”

What about the "Android System Intelligence" app that someone else mentioned here? I just realized I have that one. It sounds like it has the capabilities to spy and maybe even more.
Well yeah, any part of the os has the capability to spy.
What do you mean by that? What I meant is that the functions, capabilities, and permissions it has could enable it to do so.
Yeah, so do the rest of the system apps, and the OS itself. Why is everyone freaking out about this one all of a sudden? If you don't trust the Google software running on your phone, you shouldn't be using it in the first place.
