- banach2 10y agoYou're right, but that doesn't include licencing. There's no guarantee that Google won't retain any of your data. Additionally, there aren't many online services which you can just expect to work after handing them that data.

(I certainly do expect any service I'm likely to use to import .vcf or .mbox files without much grief.)
