[QUOTE="vansmith, post: 1398986, member: 71075"] Like I noted though, it's no different than the policies for the others. From the article I linked to: Google: Dropbox: Microsoft: Apple: They all say the same thing. I understand why Google is scrutinized more so than the others but claims that Google's licensing and privacy policies are somehow magnitudes worse is ludicrous. Any criticism of Google's policy needs to be accompanied by a similar approach to those other cloud services because to do otherwise is to "play blind" to the realities of all cloud services. I'm not saying that your making that claim (because you're not) but it's important to see how Google isn't really all that different here. This is why, when people say things like "Don't trust Google, iCloud is much better for your privacy", I have to shake my head a little. Also note that the content you upload doesn't become their property. Google is pretty clear about this in their [URL="http://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/terms/"]TOS[/URL]: [/QUOTE]
