You still have options: Google says you’ll still be able to share albums with a link, which can then be embedded in email, text, or a web site for people without a Google account. You’ll also be able to turn link sharing on or off, and decide whether you want people you’ve shared with to add photos to your albums. You can also remove folks, which will take anything they’ve contributed, as well.
Bottom line: Whether you use Google Photos to share single images or entire albums, it’s nice to not have to worry if the link you’ve created to share with has been given out to anyone else. It’s even better to know you can still use a link for those albums you DO want to pass along to people you might not know, yet, too. The new sharing rules are in place as of now.
