I haven't used this so I'm not sure what's going on, but I believe OAuth involves a redirect back to servers controlled by the third party to actually do something with the authentication token. This doesn't strike me as necessarily fishy.
- bdittmer 14y agoI guess I don't understand why they even need to store anything on their servers?
- jordanlee 14y agoHi bdittmer, we don't store any of your content, nor any of your passwords. We only store meta data that describes the organization of your documents and do so server-side so that we can add features in an upcoming release that we otherwise wouldn't be unable to add.
- urbanjunkie 14y agoYou need to be way more transparent about what you're storing and why - a native client app implies nothing in the middle.
- bdittmer 14y agoGot it. You guys should read up on iCloud :)
- sjwright 14y agoStoring stuff? Isn't that what my hard disk is for? If I wanted a cloud solution, I'd just log into Google Docs directly. I would have thought the whole point of an app like this is to take advantage of the benefits of native UI, not to add yet another point of failure.
