If it isn't a problem it's not worth fixing. A lot of people don't even know where they are saving their stuff to, so if it's in the cloud or on their device doesn't really matter to them.

I absolutely have an expectation of privacy for all of those details, doubly so if I am mandated to provide them to a third party
