Can't even run Skype? That's a massive failure.
Hangouts is a deal-breaker for those who don't want the integration and privacy costs that come along with data from search, chats and email all integrated through a single provider. On top of that, hangouts doesn't even work in some parts of the world.
- tomp 12y agoWhat do you mean, "privacy costs"? Hangouts by Google, Skype by Microsoft. Either way, NSA has direct access.
- lrem 12y agoSo, Hangouts are a privacy cost, but Skype is acceptable? Have you ever paid attention to Skype's track record?
- riffraff 12y agograndparent refers to the risk of having all your stuff available to the same provider, so skype's track record is not all there is to it.
