If you're a photographer though, the really great news is that Amazon allows you to store both jpegs and raw files. I left it on for this test and it didn’t immediately show me any names or group people together. Amazon Photos has a “default setting of on” for Image Recognition that you may want to turn off. Given some recent privacy issues for a variety of large social media companies as well as companies like Amazon and Google, let’s briefly talk about the last bullet in the above list. Note: This last item is done via image recognition technology.
