Damned Google Gemini Gmail WARNING
Damned Google is now pushing their invasive AI crap Gemini onto the
Desktop version of Gmail, with no apparent way for individual users
to disable it (Admins for commercial users apparently do have a
toggle). The Gemini sucker icon appears as a four-pointed "sprite"
next to the settings gear. If you hover on it, you'll see a "Try
Gemini" tooltip. DO NOT CLICK ON IT, unless you want Google's horrific
lying, fascism-ridden misinformation machine sucking up your emails.
NOTE: Again, there is no apparent way for individual user to disable
this. The sprite appears even if you have all Gmail "Smart" features
disabled.
This is Google blatantly trying to force this garbage on users who
have no idea what it is and how much damage it can do to them,
presumably as a first step toward pushing their "AI Agents" to take
control of your browsing. Of course, if this is your kink, go ahead
and chain yourself to Gemini. But you've been warned.
