Pourquoi quitter Google Photos ?
- Since April 2026, Gemini Personal Intelligence accesses your photos to generate personalized AI images
- Automatic face recognition enabled by default, creating a biometric database without explicit consent
- Hosted in the US, subject to the CLOUD Act which lets authorities access your photos
- Metadata (locations, dates, people) exploited to profile your habits and movements
- Gemini feature disabled by default in the EU but can be enabled — non-EU users lack this safety net

Pourquoi ce choix ?
Ente Photos is our recommendation for Google Photos users thanks to its built-in Google Takeout import tool and its real E2E encryption (photos + metadata). It's the most polished way to leave Google without losing face/object recognition (done 100% on-device, so private by design), while gaining German jurisdiction outside the CLOUD Act and freedom from Gemini on your memories.
