Whatever you do, do not use Google Allo: Snowden
Whatever you do, do not use Google Allo: Snowden
Published time: 21 Sep, 2016 21:49
Google Allo, the new “smart” chat app launched on Wednesday, is ‘dangerous’ and should be avoided, according to whistleblower Edward Snowden.
The ex-NSA contractor posted a series of Tweets to warn everyone away from the chat app, which he says will “record every message you ever send and make it available to police upon request”.
Allo, designed to unseat chat pack leader WhatsApp, promises to deliver quick conversations with features like; “Smart Reply” that can guess your answers and respond to messages with just the tap of a button, and “Google Assistant”, which answers your questions and helps you search for things directly in your chat.

How does Allo plan on predicting your every word and witty emoji, you ask? “The more you use it, the more it improves over time,” which basically means they’ll collect and store as much of your data as possible and then use artificial intelligence to guess your replies.

Google sucks, seriously. There is a good alternative for that spying tool used to collect information of our every move in the interned, the Google search engine. Don't be fooled as you are googling the Internet you are being googled just as much.
