I can't even get too mad at this, it makes complete sense for an OS to have built-in malware scanning because casual users will unintentionally install dodgy shit. The key thing is that those of us who don't want Google having a nosey through our device can still disable it trivially, because if that option goes then suddenly we're as bad as Windows!
Assuming this is on an android phone with the normal Google Play Services on it then you should expect that Google can theoretically read anything that appears on it. It's probably not that sinister though, I don't imagine anything is being sent away and logged (though it theoretically could be!), there's probably just some process which reads every incoming notification and if it thinks it sounds like a task then it offers you the prompt. Is this some setting you haven't disabled in Google Assistant?

Bromite hasn't been touched for 6 months, so this is the opposite of duplicating effort, it's an effort to save the project!
You have a whole instance under lemdro.id, right? So why not create a sister community just for the memes?
This isn't even enshittification, this is just Google still not having their shit together somehow after all these years
Can we move away from the habit of just copy-pasting clickbait video titles with no information as to what they're actually about? Lemmy gives you a description field, you have the power to summarise videos which should really be blog posts!
