Thunderflush Posted February 13 Posted February 13 Ha Ha! You could be paying a well known international company £20 a month to store little more than your music collection!!! That's right... Your music files... By law they have to give you the first 5GB free... How many CD's is that? And yet you willingly pay... We all do... Do we ever look at our files on the 'Cloud', or is it just an emotional 'Backup'. Are we stupid or what? Someone is getting money, for doing nothing, from say 80% of the computers on the planet... Never mind is it legal, Is it Ethical? Discuss.... Quote
Thunderflush Posted February 13 Author Posted February 13 Do you willing 'Sync' your computer to store more and yet more onto the 'Cloud', so your monthly payments ultimately increase...? Good and convenient for us maybe, But absolutely brilliant for the people collecting money from literally billions of computers every day! The people who do this, literally 'own' the legal systems... They actually make it law that you pay so much a month... Remember 'protection rackets'? That's exactly what this is... You pay, or they delete your 'files', that you used to back up to compact ram discs etc. Can they legally do this? Well, it's you against their bribed lawyers... No wonder there was a push to make you 'personal' computer smaller, with no CD drive etc. You get software 'free' for a month... Cos they know... You'll then be paying for it for the rest of your life... Sounds familiar, doesn't it? Discuss... Quote
Thunderflush Posted February 17 Author Posted February 17 What happens to all your sensitive and important 'backed up' legal documents when you die, and you thus stop paying? Guess... Quote
Thunderflush Posted February 17 Author Posted February 17 I wouldn't be stupid enough to put dracula in charge of a blood bank... Or trust a complete stranger with my most precious documents would I? Well... It appears that we are all doing so already... Is this situation legal? Yes... When the people doing it actually own the law... Quote
