These IMAP integrations, like TripIt & Slice, have been a part of Gmail for a long time now (since Gmail has supported IMAP for years). This is Microsoft playing catch-up. But yea, I hear you..

let's not pretend these emails are sitting in plaintext on google's servers though. they are "fragmented and obfuscated" at rest.

it really broke google talk/hangouts on mobile. it isn't any better in the browser, either.

i sold my startup about 3 months ago, and immediately starting looking for another job. after a couple months, a couple interesting but-not-exciting offers, and one interview process that ended in me not getting an offer, i finally took a

They could, but they would have to change their TOS, which business customers would have to agree to. Most of these customers would not, thus destroying this portion of Google's business, so they would never do that. Ads are not a pa

Yes. Google Apps business model, and all Google Enterprise products for that matter, do not rely on ads for revenue. Google sells their business customers a product and generates revenue through those sales. The TOS protects your data.

i pay for my gmail (google apps) so I don't have any ads.

in favor of what alternatives?

There are also some nice success stories around..what's your point? Lots of happy customers over 10k seats on Google Apps and Microsoft products.

Sharing files is a major feature of Google Drive.

storage space and bandwidth are not really limiting factors on today's internet. i have over 100gig of online storage and 25mbps internet, for example. (corrected 1gig to 100gig).

I'll keep using Google Drive.

It makes no difference if you are using cloud services or not. Everything on the internet is being recorded by the NSA. Foreign & domestic.

by djim 13y ago
You're assuming they are getting the data from Google. They are getting the information from the internet backbone, not the service providers themselves. Assume EVERYTHING on the internet is being recorded, regardless of service prov

you can live your entire life and never fly. if you are a citizen of the world communicating inside the US (or internet traffic passing through the US), evidence seems to indicate that some portion of your communications are being recorded

I don't jive with your analogy on TSA screening/NSA blanket spying on all citizens. Flying is a choice, in one form or another. We volunteer to be subjected to TSA when we buy a plane ticket. We don't agree to give up our r

no. haven't you been paying attention the last few days?

by djim 13y ago
Yup. I hesitated despite my strong belief that this is wrong, for fear of the backlash down the road. I can come up with some scenarios where the government could hold this against me. Fuck it. We must stand up for our rights. I signed.

Are you ok with the information that has come to light about our government collecting masses of data about US citizens under the guise of fighting terrorism? I think what is coming to light here is that the Government does whatever the fu

possible the timeline on the slide is when NSA successfully began making sense of the raw data they could be collecting at internet backbones? also possible that the document purposefully threw the public off track by implicating these pla

I also spend far more time reading comments of strangers on HN (after reading the articles, of course) than I do on Facebook.

i don't think this is off-topic. this was this first thing that popped into my mind as i read this article. Moz is in the wrong here, legal or not.

actually, the author got quite a few key facts wrong, so in this case, i think not owning the device does factor into the equation. for example, he complains about not being able to use them in direct sunlight. google provides a sunglass

the camera takes the photo when you tell it too - i'm not sure where the author gets the idea that google glass can somehow go back in time to take a photo...
