Until the next time this comes around.

Neat, bookmarked.
It's a twitter image that says,
"For anyone unaware, Google Chrome is currently rolling out an update that tracks your interests based on browsing history, then share them with 3rd party websites. The notification page makes it sound like they added a new privacy feature, but in actuality they automatically enrolled you into their tracking system and you have to go and manually opt out."
There's a screenshot of a pop up from Chrome that says, "Enhanced ad privacy in Chrome" with some marketing spin on how you get more choice on the types of ads you see.
I’m in the same boat. The recommendations don’t bother me too much, except when it recommends me videos I’ve seen in the recent or distant past. Also, when I watch one video from someone, then come to find out they’re part of some right wing culture and end up getting recommended the right wing rabbit hole videos for a few weeks.
You could look into the app Photo Sync on the App Store. It should support S3 compatible storage, although I’ve personally never used it (only used WebDAV and SMB).

Wall-E the robot vac and Eve the robo mop. Great pair together.
You’ve made your case and stood your ground, and until it’s an official policy and nothing more than “guidance” you’ll probably be ok, honestly.
A few months back I was offered a promotion and a fancy new job title, with the caveat that I would need to move to another country. I countered with more or less the same argument as you, “I’ve been doing this from home for years and everyone I work with is remote anyways; I’m not moving” and was met with a “hmm…fair enough”.
At that point, you might as well give up the rescue, call everyone back and seal the poor soul inside. 😖
