You must host your own data if you don’t want a third party going through it.

"The cloud" continues to be someone else's computer. If you put your data up there, it's no longer your data.

except if you put it in a password encrypted archive beforehand. because then nobody has access to it.

how would they scan the inside of a password protected zip archive? the whole purpose of the password is that nobody can open it without the pw. you can may look at the zip archive self and check the checksum or maybe filenames, but not open and extract the files to check them (images etc). specially not if you maybe even use rar archives who are even more secure and you can protect even filename lists etc.

For Bankston, the issue seems localized to Google Drive, and only happens after pressing the Gemini button on at least one document.

Turns out, when you tell it to look at your document, it looks at your document. Who could possibly have known?!

Literally the next sentence:

The matching document type (in this case, PDF) will subsequently automatically trigger Google Gemini for all future files of the same type opened within Google Drive.

So documents you didn't tell it to look at.
