Literal Hostage Situation

Alt Text:
Google photos on ios is literally a hostage situation. Remove key functionalities like copying an image or editing an image unless you give them full unrestricted access to your entire photo library. (The holy grail of surveillance capitalism data). Data extortion masquerading as a service.
speaking from experience, I could do without 700,000,000 memes saved since 2012 in with sentimental family photos
So do you want to give Google Photos access to only specific folders or something?
I think the use case of google photos is to just back up all your photos. If you want something more granular, you probably need a different app.
I mean I dont want to give Google photos access to any of my files, Ive since left their platform behind and switched to something more private. I feel like at one point on Android you could pick and choose which folders got backed up, but thats memories from like, Android 8 so im not positive about that.
