Google has done a massive privacy invasion again.
Every single email address you have registered with them is automatically opted in to allow data scraping for Gen AI purposes.
You need to go into the account settings for each email address you happen to have with Google and turn off Smart Features AND Workplace Smart Features if you don't want your private correspondences and documents to be used for Gen AI training.
Google is trying to discourage you from doing this by making it so that opting out of having your private data sold to Gen AI developers also turns off their auto sorting of socials/promotions/forums and so on.
Here is how to turn it off
