Trust Cloud Storage but Better Not

Advertisement

Trust cloud storage as the big companies are making it incredibly easy to store personal photos, documents, audio files but problems arise that threatens. The of Google Drive reported the problem of privacy and the use of cloud storage services. Not that the privacy policies of Google has any large difference compared to those of competing services, such as Microsoft SkyDrive, Apple iCloud or Dropbox, but now that these big companies are making it incredibly easy to store personal photos, documents, audio files, problems arise that threaten to penalize an incredible number of users.

 

Trust Cloud Storage but Better Not

 

It seems so convenient to take advantage of free services such as Google Cloud, typically all of which offers 5GB or 7GB of storage and it is, you must be conscious of the risks involved. In general, the privacy policies for all service providers are similar, as pointed out by us before. The companies recognize that they do not have the possession of the data and promise to not log in, going over management operations provided during the service. This last point is crucial for the companies, because they need to copy and move files and folders within their server to provide backup and file-sharing and to develop new services.

The services, however, have some differences between them:

  1. Google Drive: Google has a single policy of privacy and service for all of its services. Although it is easier than having a separate contract for each service, it also means that the language in some sections should be more vague to cover all products of the company.
  2. Microsoft SkyDrive: Microsoft’s terms of service have gotten credit for having preferred plain language in legal terms. In general the terms of service ofe Microsoft is the same and has the same limitations of Google.
  3. Apple iCloud: Apple takes a step further than the others in censorship. The Company has the right to cancel without any notification alerts archived content that you find objectionable. Through it all, does not specify the method of decision that can push to erase content from iCloud.
  4. Dropbox: Unlike Google, Microsoft and Apple, the business depends only on the Dropbox cloud storage and file sharing. However, its terms of service tend to use very vague language that could be interpreted in a more open regarding the rights held by the company on a file.

 

Yes, Trust Cloud Storage but Better Not

 

The most obscure part, however lies, is in their policies, but as you pose providers with respect to government agencies, law enforcement and lawyers in civil cases. All storage vendors say that they will deliver the files if required by law, but do not undertake to notify affected customers. This makes it possible for retailers to follow the requests of law enforcement to keep their actions secret, but as you can guess this is a bad feature for those who support the importance of privacy.
