If you use #Google Photos, there's a non-zero chance that there are secret, yet public URLs attached to your photos that allow un-authenticated access to every picture in your account. Mine did, and I tested the addresses in incognito and tor browsers and they worked. #privacy

@gerowen Not to defend a people farmer like Google/Alphabet, Inc. in any way but, in this case, I’m assuming those are cryptographically-secure (which I can’t tell by looking at them, I’d have to see how they’re generated) URLs so there’s really no chance someone could stumble upon them.
