I don't believe that they'll slip it under the radar at all. I think they'll brand it as something awesome and magical and just add it anyway. People, for the most part, don't scratch the surface EVER, so they'll just think it has a cool scanning feature built-in now.

They already scan your photos but the reason for scanning is important. Type 'cat' into the search and they'll show you the pictures you've taken of cats. However, they can't just go through your photos and use it for any purpose they want. They have to give a specific reason.

I meant that they won't hide what it will do. It will be called something benign and fluffy and it will be "for your protection".

That's what I meant.
