Yes, the company should have to stand behind its promises.
The company benefited from them, after all. One day they promise a terabyte of free storage, and the next they say they'll all your photos in three months. That's quite a slap in the face. (Asking for "indefinite" storage is also a big jump from three months.)
The blog post in which they announced the new policy was similarly two-faced. (Yes, Facebook and Instagram beat Flickr. No, this obviously wasn't because Flickr was too inexpensive.) And as a photographer, there's just no way I will ever trust a company that so blithely deletes huge swathes of photos. No photography company would do that.
- icebraining 8y agoI agree they have to stand by their promise, I'm just asking what their promise was. If the matter is the length, then that becomes quite subjective, no? I mean, should it be three years? Three decades? How do you arrive at a number that is "correct" and not just whatever one feels is right?
- gdhbcc 8y agoWhats the time until the heat death of the universe? That's what they committed to (or more if se manage to extend that)
- greeneggs 8y agoI don't know, does three months feel right to you? To me, until they go out of business feels right. My expectations aren't unreasonable. I only have 2 or 3 gigabytes of photos there. Up to two days ago, they were advertising a terabyte of free storage.
