Today when I was looking at an email, gmail had a little thumbnail of a picture of me and our new daughter in the upper right. I didn't post it, it isn't my profile picture, and I wasn't looking in an email that had that picture.
It said 'Recent photos'. After some digging, I found that it was a picture that I sent to my brother some time ago. Why was it popping up in another email? Why do they think I'd like a random assortment of images that I have previously sent to pop up on the right of my screen? WTF is that?

The creepiest thing was the auto upload feature on phones. I would get notification in my browser "you have new auto uploaded images...click to share."
Scared the absolute fuck out of me the first couple times...especially since the images were NSFW.

Google knows you wanted to upload them. It's what's best, really. :/
Oh, nice... the 'recent photos' includes pics that other people have sent me too. Great, I could just email a bunch of cock pics around to my email list, and everyone can enjoy those little thumbnails for the next few weeks. Why do other people get to choose what pictures I see when I am using my email?

I think you need to learn how to read. It scared me because I saw the image in google+ notification window. Take a chill pill, fan boy.
