Cloud = someone else’s computer
Never forget
Yeah but the whole point here is that we expect the owner of the other computer to be very competent at keeping our stuff private. And if something happens to at least report it so we know and can try to mitigate the damages.

Why? If nothing else we have learned in the past 20 years that large operators are the ones MOST likely to get data leaked or stolen, literally every major platform has had at least one major cockup in that time. They are all motivated by profits first and security maybe third or lower.
It’s not even a definite cockup, because being a large data provider means you are constantly under attack by intelligent, knowledgeable people intent on getting in. It’s surprising that it doesn’t happen far more often.
The real problem is that all this is being stored in the first place.
We expect people running an automotive repair facility to be competent with vehicle repair
Why? 🥴🥴🥴
A car repair place loses business if they don’t competently repair your car. That’s apparently not true for large tech companies for whatever reason.
So if your car repair place sucks at fixing your car, you should find a better one or do it yourself. If your tech service sucks at protecting your data, you should find a better one or do it yourself.
It’s the state of the industry.
And I know several automotive repair facilities that so incompetent it must be malicious.
That’s an insane level of professionalism and accountability you’re talking about there, friend.
Well, someone’s Grandpa came here and said the thing that everyone’s Grandpa likes to say. Now we can move on.
This…is far from insulting? It’s also kinda pathetic too. Good job
I know the general narrative is “Google bad”, but this seems like a healthy thing?
First of all, if this is a way for employees to report privacy incidents, that’s a good thing.
Second, given the enormous reach giggle has, the fact that it has “thousands” of privacy incidents collected over many years isn’t a large percentage at all.
