#Google backs down after locking out #Nextcloud Files #app


Source: theregister.com/2025/05/17/goo…

However, for a file #synchronization app like Nextcloud's, the "All files #access" #permission was required. And it had been granted for years until, quite suddenly, it wasn't anymore. The result was a crippled app in the #PlayStore, and Google appeared to ignore repeated requests for an #explanation.

I'm quitting Google Docs because @CryptPad is a better option for me...

So is a huge fine being sent to all of them or just a slap on the wrist?
#Google, #Meta, #Amazon, #Apple, etc don't care about #EU ruling. Until fines TRULY hurt their pockets, they prefer to continue with their profits and pay the price once in a while.
How many of these companies have been fined for similar behaviour in the past? Have they changed it? Yes, they are making their malpractices more hidden and sophisticated.
Bureaucrats don't understand tech well enough to punish them.


Auch so ne Sache… #Google hat #NextCloud dazu gebracht, mit seiner NextCloud-App auf #Android nicht mehr alle Dateitypen zu synchronisieren. Wenn's also nicht gescheit funzt, liegt's nicht an NextCloud. Das ist aber natürlich das, was weniger nerdige User denken…

Ich bin allerdings nicht betroffen, da ich meine NächsteWolke von F-Droid bezogen habe, den Playstore nutze ich ebensowenig wie ein Google-Konto auf meinem Telefon.

F-Droid und Playstore sollten auch parallel funzen… als Lösungsansatz für normalere User.

#Google ist zu mächtig. Der Techkonzern missbraucht seine Monopolstellung und schadet letztlich der Vielfalt im Netz und damit auch unserer Demokratie. Die EU kann und sollte dagegen vorgehen und den Konzern #zerschlagen! Bitte unterzeichnen auch Sie jetzt unseren Appell!

1,6 miljoonaa Android-sovellusta katosi Google Play -kaupasta

Taustalla on viime vuoden heinäkuussa kiristynyt Googlen laadunvalvonta Android-sovellusten osalta. Lopputuloksena Google Playssa saatavilla olevien sovellusten määrä romahti 3,4 miljoonasta 1,8 miljoonaan.

The decline is directly related to the AI turd that is being pushed out in Google search. It is not clear when I go to a website what is AI generated, AI curated and what is written by humans. And the results are pure thrash.

Goddamit #google I am not searching on Amazon or Ebay. I do not want to purchase something. I want information. If I want to buy something I would go to shopping.google.com

#search, #googlesearch, #improvesearch


I am using #Qwant and #DuckDuckGo. I fall back to #Google for some special searches, but I avoid being logged in. I am preparing to delete my Google account.

i would not be surprised at all if the #google would just sell their #chrome browser to #perplexity (to tame the monopoly attacks - it recently experienced - down a bit) and behind the scenes work on a complete perplexity buyout by some fresh founded, superb funded, google associated company. surveillance capitalism just thrives like crazy.


Though fair play to Google, it did acknowledge that there is no literal meaning to the phrase "To grow an aubergine you have to bugger the badger".

Though it still thought it was a phrase that is used. Which I'm pretty sure it isn't.

#AI #Google #Hallucinations


Oh gosh, it's true, you really can enter a completely nonsense phrase into Google, ask for its meaning, and lo and behold, Google's AI will make shit up.

So if you've ever wondered what "to grow an avocado, you have to slap the squirrel" means, now you know.
