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?

Ah, that’s a good point. Tape someone else’s card to the back of your phone!

Do you know if it’s possible to hide all upvote/downvote scores on comments? I’ve often wondered if that would kerb the “groupthink” as people wouldn’t be pre-influenced by the number, but it would still allow sorting by popular and filtering-out of mass-downvoted comments.
Do you think disabling downvoting will work? While it does encourage people to just downvote things that are already downvoted, the alternative is that you have no way to mark bad/lazy/rude content that isn’t actually worth reporting, and you end up in the Facebook-like situation of low-effort stuff filling the space. Hopefully this won’t happen while the community is small, but that will probably change eventually!
