“might”
I kinda assumed it already did, so I stopped using Google photos, now it’s time to exit google drive as well. The only transition I think might be hard for me is Gmail and maybe Keep, but I’ll figure something out
For your email switch to literally any other provider that supports using your own domain. You bring the domain, they host it for you. You can change at any time based on whatever is the least evil.
I would have to be crazy enough to use google photos for them to scan mine.
Google won’t scan my private photos. Neither do I have Android (nor iOS) on my phone, nor do I use Gmail and certainly not Google Photos.
What do you use for your phone, out of curiosity?
Sailfish OS on my Jolla Phone 2026, fully natively. It is as “Nokia” as you can go today, given it is the successor of Meego, the last in-house Nokia OS, which was fully gesture based before iOS and Android. Nowadays it feels IMHO refreshingly clean, certainly different from the duopoly but also from other Linux phones.
Always assume Google will scan whatever you store or access through them for advertisement targeting.
And that’s why we self host.
One word: Immich
photoprism is another option.

I mean, Apple already scans my photos for “memories.” This is definitely probable.
