[kwlug-disc] GMail, profile photo, and privacy: HOW'd it DO that?!?

Google's Neural Network is smart in some cases, and stupid in others.

In a bygone era, a family member would travel, and email the others
their itinerary from whatever booking site they used. Others in the
household would then get alerts on their phone: reminder for flights
and weather in the destination city.

It can't tell the difference between the person traveling and others
that have received the itinerary in their inbox.

Happened several times over a couple of years, so not just a one time
glitch.
