Amazon Photos puts Amazon shopping in your photo album.
Former Microsoft and now Amazon exec Panos Panay announced that Amazon has added the photo library feature everyone was asking for: shopping links. The image storage service’s search uses image recognition to analyze your photos and surface products it thinks you’re searching for, then pop up a lens icon over them so you can buy them on Amazon.
It’s unclear from the help page whether turning off the Tag Photos feature will shut this down if you’d like to opt out -- we’ve contacted Amazon for more info.
