What security incidents?
Of all tech companies I'd feel most secure with Google being the stewards of my data.
- hyperman1 6y agoSnowden. They were leaking a lot of data to the NSA and they didn't even know. Of course, they upped their game since then, but their sheer size will always make them an interesting target and they have to fail only once.
- jesterson 6y agoThank you. I am purposely avoiding convo to be channeled into discussion of this or that incident - those who want to dig into the matter they can find plenty and draw their own conclusions.
- jesterson 6y agoIf google makes you feel more secure that doesn't mean it's secure. Feeling secure perhaps works for you but if we would assess how they deal with our data they would be quite far from pool of companies we can trust with data. And that's only based on what we know currently from security incidents.
- kinkrtyavimoodh 6y agoI have worked for a few years at Google and have a decent insight into all the processes that go into keeping user data secure. It's perfectly fine to have your reservations but so far as I am concerned, I sleep well. I don't share the same confidence for all my data that is floating around carelessly in some government spreadsheet somewhere, though.
