Yah, those TOS's have to change.... I had no idea Apple's TOS was so bad... Amazon can wipe your kindle without notice, including wiping all your e-books with zero compensation or return... Both reasons I'll NEVER buy an Apple product or Amazon Kindle.... I'm sure some other TOS's are just as bad too... When will people rise up and speak with their dollars and not buy these products until the TOS gets more realistic? Mike B Michael P.

Here's one of my big complaints with the cloud. We have done such a poor job over the years of protecting data within our purview, we move it to the cloud and provide another layer of indirection. That's 2x the point of failures, and at least an additional layer of corporate rabbit holes. Couple the cloud with obscene Terms of Service (for example, Apple states they can lose your data, give it away, or provide it to law enforcement without making you whole), and the user or consumer is only going to be abused more often. http://business.financialpost.com/2012/11/27/digital-cloud-may-lead-to-deluge-of-privacy-class-actions/ _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list. _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
