Today I posted few bugs feedback
One of the feedback was about Photos that blurs RAW photos if I use its tools
In the feedback they got my full photo library 😡 in the photos diagnostic-
I downloaded the document to see what they got and there is a
886MB with a Syndication.photoslibrary that when opened
it fills with all my photos. Plus there is another one 168 MB that is my Photo.photoslibrary
I already sent a screenshot as requested, NOT the full album
What shall I do? I requested them to delete it, they don't have the right.
 
How do you know it?
You can look at the sysdiagnose files which are generated for Feedback Assistant. There are no photos sent. For instance, my Photos Library is many tens of gigabytes. Apple would have no use for that information and it would take many hours to upload all those photos on some internet connections.

I tried something else: I created a new user that doesn't have any photos and opened both libraries there
one 650MB and the other 168MB. None filled up with photos as it happened under my user.
There were though all the infos about my photos: albums names, photos names , complete exif 🙄 etc
but better than having the photos themselves.

Thanks for your help

P.s A minor bug happened creating another user. My appleid icon in System settings now is crooked
I edit it, as it should be, save and everything goes back to normal. Close the System settings but when I reopen
even after a good restart, the icon is back crooked as it changed creating the new user
