Google pulled off a similar thing with their photos app. Offered "unlimited" storage in 2016, improved the AI leveraging all our data, discontinued in 2021.
Never using cloud again.
- chii 3y agoWhen someone else controls your compute, you're not owning but renting, regardless of how or what they call it in the marketing. Unless legislation changes to make sure consumer rights are respected for cloud offerings, it won't change one bit. I would say buy your own drives, and store your own data on location. Use cloud as a backup rather than a primary use.

- WolfRazu 3y agoWasn't it still "unlimited" for photos uploaded before the cut-off? That's quite reasonable for a free service vs. "paid lifetime".
- asynchronyse 3y ago> quite reasonable Maybe. I'd use the word 'compensatory'. Using two apps to access half of my media each renders either one useless.
