Samsung has started showing Samsung Health users a controversial notice requiring them to consent to their data being used for AI training if they want to keep their data from being deleted.
When I looked into it, the health related smartwatch features that were sold specifically said that they required you to use use, and agree to the terms of service (which says they can cancel the service at any time) of, their specific apps or devices and that the data provided to these services were theirs to do with as they please.
I thought that was a terrible deal so I didn’t buy one.
There are smartwatches that let you keep your data, but they require a lot more work to use.
This isn’t that. People are paying for devices with promised feature sets that have now had their terms changed.
