Wow. Good thing I sent back my Samsung health watch after discovering some of the fancy features were locked to having a Samsung smartphone to go with it.
Shameful business conduct.

#92Gemini does the same (though not with health data). The only way to opt out of training on your data is to disable all Gemini chat history.
If I'm not mistaken you can still use all of Gemini features, without saving history, without training?

Every TV does that unfortunately. It's called automatic content recognition but every manufacturer has a different euphemism for it. It's definitely not just Samsung. As bad as this is. The problem is bigger than just them.
ah so thats where microsoft got the idea for recall from.
How is Recall doing these days?

#95> The company plans to grab four categories: your sleep, your medications, your medical records, and your cycle tracking details So you buy a device but you can't effectively use half of its features because you'd also have to agree to send them your medical records? Ok then if I refuse, will they refund 50% of the device price since now it's not usable any more?
I can't wait for self-hosting to become the norm and companies to not have the option to do this anymore

#97They are dumber than a second coat of paint.
The Indiana variant of this phrase was “tighter than two coats of paint” which meant a person who was tight with money (cheap).

#98What a friendly move. Try to get any of those surveillance giants to delete any data they have about you. And Samsung does it voluntarily? I would take that opportunity instantly if I were a user.

#99I've always loved Samsung Magician (for drives), whose Windows installer always asks something to the effect of "Do you happen to live in Brazil or the EU by any chance?"
