A new Gmail update may allow Google to use your private messages and attachments for AI training. Here's how to turn it off.

Gmail is going to be mighty disappointed wth the content of my emails: I've been using that account for nearly two decades as a backup repository for my digital paintings. The only person that sends email to that address is myself. Best online storage ever.

    Don't I wish!

    No, that is a woman with a food photography business. She got to it before I did. When gmail started I was still using MacOS9 and couldn't set up an account. She also got the .com site which I was going to use for my own business.

    I'm hoping that she lets go of the web address, her site is so old and static it's inactive and built with Flash, which of course is totally retired by Adobe and dead.

    So, I wait.
