In what can only be seen as Alphabet's blatant refusal to obey EU law, it was announced over the weekend that they would introduce Bard to Android Messages App and intercept all messages (past and future) for the purpose of training it - in breach of EU's rules on interception of communications under Article 5(1) of Directive 2002/58/EC.

To make it worse Alphabet know this is illegal after they were caught intercepting WiFi communications in 2010 with their Streetview cars.

Sadly I cannot post the letter here as my Mastodon instance doesn't allow for pdf attachments, but you can read it here:
