I would have thought that the context of the discussion I was having would have made it obvious I was speaking about a problem for Apple and its investors and not a personal problem for Annie. I am as painfully aware as anyone re the awkwardness of internet dialog. I was simply agreeing with her. Apple is leading on privacy but unless the majority follow... All I can do is live by example and hope people are not that shortsighted.

slacker, the compelling services being Google Photo and......? I'm really not meaning to be argumentative I'm just wanting to understand what compelling services would make a person give up personal data willingly? Free photo storage vs. paid photo storage. With the first I may be giving up all rights to those photos, or not, who knows? With the second, assuming it's with a trustworthy outfit, I pay a small sum to have my photos continue to be mine and be safely stored. I'll choose door number 2. It won't take more than a few incidents of photo loss or theft for that investment in the first company to head south rather quickly. As for Echo.....NIMLR
