 |  Google will soon restrict loan apps from accessing users' photos and contacts Google will implement a new rule for apps providing personal loans starting on May 31st that could help protect users from abuse and harassment. The tech giant has updated its policy (via TechCrunch) to prohibit cash lending applications from being able to access users' contacts list. They will no longer be able to access people's photos and videos, as well, whether they're saved on the phone itself or an external storage. https://www.engadget.com/google-will...9.html?src=rss |
