The tentacles tighten...
"We think everyone should be able to make beautiful photos, so today we’re launching a set of initiatives aimed at improving your photos automatically — basically your camera, plus Google’s cloud."

Thanks, all fixed.
I wonder if Nik technology figures into this?

Not sure how relevant that article is to this audience as it assumes the only 'camera' you own is your phone.

Aside from the camera issue, LuLa members surely use Nik software and privacy rights affect every photographer.
