Imagine the day when you go to some web site and see a picture of your wife, with a caption saying something like, "isn't it time that you talked to your doctor about Viagra?" How about those pre video ads on YouTube with your dead grandma, telling you to consider cremation?

What does that really mean, to use your data for ad targeting? Can they use your pictures to generate an AI image of those you love?

I see lots of posts that it doesn't affect you because you're not on Google services. What about that friend who took pictures at last week's happy hour? Grandma sharing pictures of her favorite granddaughter with her pickle ball group? Unless you're a hermit, you can't stop the slow trickle of your personal data being sucked up and stored for generations. It's your data, where are the laws to protect it?
