The controversy coincided with a proposed California class‑action lawsuit alleging unauthorized use of Gmail data for Gemini, but Google maintains no such data usage occurred. Leia mais →

These steps allow a more traditional experience without permanently removing the ability to re‑enable the features later. Leia mais →
