The tweet doesn't say that these photos came from "Photos", just an "unused account". All other evidence seems to suggest that these are photos from another service called Panoramio which Google acquired at some point. Not saying it's right or wrong by the way (perhaps something in Panoramio's TOS that all photos were public), but based on this news I'd assume that my beach photos in Google Photos are safe from prying eyes - for now.
