Only if inbox let you not load images automatically. The same way Gmail behaves, you choose if you want to see the images.

Why?

[91bananas]

Tracking pixels.

[Kiro]

I suppose you're aware but all the pixel does is tracking whether you open it or not since Google preloads and proxies it. It's never served from the original server.

I like opting in to read notifications. Using a tracking pixel for this is a privacy violation (albeit minor).

[Kiro]

Yup, fair point. Still wanted to emphasize that the tracking pixel is way less intrusive than it used to be when you're using Gmail nowadays.

[91bananas]

Correct, that level of tracking alone is enough to make me want images off by default.
