Quote:In a serious privacy lapse, Google is notifying users that videos stored in their Google Photos account were mistakenly shared with other unrelated users.
 
Yesterday, Google began sending email notifications to users explaining that a bug caused their videos to be included in other user's data when it downloaded via the Google Takeout service.
 
This notification tells affected users that between November 21st, 2019, and November 25th, 2019,  "some videos in Google Photos were incorrectly exported to unrelated user's archives.
One or more videos in your Google Photos account was affected by this issue."

The Google Takeout service allows users to download content that has been uploaded to various services operated by Google.
This includes the content and data that has been uploaded to Google Photos, YouTube, Chrome, and many other services.
