[QUOTE="jetman, post: 671996, member: 63028"] Interesting- who knows what happens to your data ? Thats why I am suspicious of Google in particular. I'd never put anything really really confidential in the cloud if I could help it. Pcloud allow users to share their folders by creating "public links"- it works like a website address. I think some users have uploaded copyrighted films and music and then shared them through links which they post on messageboards. Maybe that is what pcloud were accusing that user of ? They look like a pretty legitimate company to be fair. Cloud storage companies are nervous after the megaupload founders were prosecuted by the USA and now face deportation and imprisonment as a result. They were blatantly hosting and publically distributing pirated material. Dropbox and similar providers now need to put some sort of measures in place to stop this happening. I've always said- I don't mind governments looking at my data (they would find it very boring) its the criminals that I am more worried about. [/QUOTE]
