Google stuff
1) Turns out it was reportedly Google paying Reddit $60M or some such for their
data to train AI. I don't remember giving Reddit permission to use my content
for that
purpose. But hey, no doubt it's buried in the fine print TOS somewhere. Of
course.
2) Google is experimenting with removing the "News" filter tab from
Search. How will that improve the user experience? Beats me. But not
unexpected from Google these days.
3) Got a look at Google's new login page that will be gradually
rolling out. Sufficiently different from what they've been using for
so many years that it could easily be a gift to crooks for phishing
attacks, by creating confusion over real vs. fake login pages.
