Cloud Storage Site Hacked -- Many Angry

Postby George Tyndall » Mon Sep 01, 2014 12:52 pm

The scandal also posed a public relations challenge to tech companies, who have been marketing online storage like iCloud, DropBox or GoogleDrive as a safe haven for users' private data.

I knew that would happen. Just a matter of time. I'm encrypting some of my cloud stuff because of that problem. The article referenced says it was icloud. (Apple) Dropbox says they encrypt your data automatically.
Maybe icloud doesn't encrypt your data? Do you know?

They're on a floppy disk -- the safest storage there is!

I'm asking puleeeeeeez spare us :mrgreen:. Can one expire laughing? BTW, does anyone use 3.5s anymore. I probably have a bunch of those, and they probably have some old artwork on them. I've considered attempting to hook up a 3.5 floppy but not sure it would function with this system. :gl: with the cloud my friends, still not a big fan.

I've still got some new 3.5s and 5.25s.
I doubt the drivers for a floppy drive will work with W7 or W8, although I have seen some externals for sale that claim to work on the newer systems.
