Personally, I think there are other reasons. I developed software system with hundreds of millions to a few billions data entries items in the core object store (C++) and need to very fast access time. There are needs to open/load&#x

Few people said you can't fight google with NSL or force them to do anything because it has $50B in cash. Easy: Just start an anti-trust investigation - a fed lawyer can drag Larry Page and Google's top level managers into federal

BTW, a much simpler way to get the SSL keys is to send someone (or teams) to be employed by Google. (Like another big country probably did a while back.) Once inside, put a few webcam, physical/virtual key logger, a few line of co

Thx again for the info. I see why the 10MB limit. What's the Pro/Con of this compare to just use sqlite on a dropbox volume? From what I read, the API doesn't do any operational transformation such as merge, delta the changes

Thx, smarx Good info! 10MB database limit is too small - somehow I would image dropbox wants app to create hundreds of MB if not GB of data. :-) Are there any test code available? Open Source / on github? It is much easier to underst
