Thou shalt not browse The Internet
Nope. Snowflake has been around for a while. I’ve been running my node for at least a year now
Safari refers to it as “Privacy-Preserving Ad Measurement”, and Chrome includes an option as part of its “Privacy Sandbox.” Please have the decency to do a basic google search before being an asshole :)
Literally every browser has this option, and it gives users a choice. If you use an ad blocker, it has this option as well and has had it for several years now.
The image-to-text model is impressive. I could see it being useful for smart search of your library, allowing users to find photos with a high-level description.
I’m not sure why it’s being reported on as though the technology is a privacy or security threat, though. If you’ve given a storage provider access to your photos anyway, using a vision model isn’t going to give them anything extra.
That said, I do love self-hosted photo solutions like Immich and Ente. Hope they continue to grow.
