Can anybody clarify what privacy I as a Bing, outlook, windows mobiles user get from this ? It mentions enterprise customer, does this means, these standards doesn't apply to users of above mentioned services ?
- morganvachon 12y agoI'm pretty sure it's a different set of rules for regular consumers vs enterprise. It's always been that way in the past. That said, can you really trust any "cloud storage" provider these days? I'd say the most trustworthy would be someone like SpiderOak, as they don't have access to your private key and therefore have had minimal requests from law enforcement which yielded no info[1]. And I say that as someone who has settled on OneDrive for my casual cloud storage, with more important or private files (taxes, finances) stored on a personal server running OwnCloud from my home office. I have all of my files, important and casual, backed up to an external drive that lives in a fire safe. Not as secure as, say, a bank deposit box, but better than nothing.

- LLWM 12y agoSuch "transparency reports" are only a lower bound. If the government requires you to keep the request a secret, you must keep it secret.
- LeoPanthera 12y agoSpiderOak's client is closed-source though, so you only have their word that they don't have your private key.
