Could do, as far as I know they are all store in one place and that place is America.

Are our perosnal files(photos) really safe stored in those cloud servers or they are accessed by others?

They are stored and are safe, only you and the people that you let can access them.

 

[Nikos]

Are you sure they dont disclose information to 3rd party companies?

Nothing can be sure except Death, Nikos...

"Are you sure your bank doesn't disclose information to taxes office?"

Any time you give something to somebody else to watch over, you're taking a risk.

Your files are only as safe as the companies security measures are.

You can take steps such as encrypting your files, but if you plan on sharing them, anyone you share them with would need your key to decrypt them.

As with anything computer oriented, usability reduces security.

If you are unsure about using Dropbox, don't use it at all

I have no idea. I don't use Facebook. :angel:

I would assume though, that this link will be mirrored on all of the Facebook data centers.

That is true, which can be handy as well.
