Tech Desk: Two major changes are going to take place in the world of technology from June 1, 2021, which can cause a tremendous blow to the users. Meaning users will have to pay for the free service of Google Photo. Also, Youtubers who earn money from Youtube will have to pay some tax.
Google Photos free cloud storage facility will be replaced with a paid subscription model from June 1, 2021. On behalf of the company, it has been named Google One. Meaning, Google will now charge for Google Photo Cloud Storage.
Currently, Google Photo comes with unlimited free storage. However, from June 1, 2021, customers are offered only 15GB of free cloud storage from Google.
