  If your backups are encrypted and stored on a Google Drive account, there are no privacy issues minus Google knowing you are doing backups.

  I wouldn’t personally do it, but I don’t see any issues with it if someone does this.

  There are so many places to store data online. Just encrypt and upload it where you have space available.

  AWS is cheap. Google Drive and iCloud are convenient. pCloud, sync.com, and any other online storage service are also great options. Just get your data offsite to avoid regional catastrophes.

  Oh man, if they think WhatsApp is bad, go look at Twitter’s DM encryption implementation. They need to ban that app as well.

  Google Drive and OneDrive offer versioning as far as I can tell.

  Google drive does up to 100 versions or within 30 days.

  If you are looking for longer term backups of versions, you will need to hard backup at least once every 30 days, which can also be stored on Google Drive.

  Syncing with versioning is a solid backup of each state of a file and any changes it undergoes. Depending on how long you have it set to keep those changes, it can be an even better backup than a once daily backup. If you get hit with a deletion or corruption, just reload the previous version that isn’t deleted or corrupted.

  It can be your offsite backup in the 3-2-1 backup policy.

  3 copies 2 mediums 1 offsite

  And nowhere in those details are there any mentions of passwords.

  Was this article written by AI? It doesn’t seem there is any mention that any passwords were leaked.

  They could buy it and then release the source code to expose all the surveillance. It won’t make Chrome better, but it’ll at least show how much its been spying on its users.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨US judge says Google must open Android phones to rival app stores⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Apple can take action and remove apps that are malicious, and they’re really good at it. Of course you won’t hear those people on facebook worrying about app permissions because there usually isn’t anything to worry about.

  Adding a new app store is a HUGE attack surface that requires a ton of resources, and im getting the feeling that people aren’t understanding the effort Apple takes to keep their app store nice.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨US judge says Google must open Android phones to rival app stores⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  All I can see is the big giant security hole this opens up for both platforms.

  Text messages, photos, contacts, sleep patterns, bank information, heart rates, stocks, phone calls, menstrual cycles, voice memos, 2 factor authentication apps, password managers, medications, blood oxygen levels, baby monitors, cameras, wifi lights, internal home network servers, hotel rooms, emails, etc harvested, sold, and exploited all because superrootuser420@lemmy.world wants his Pixel 6 to be able to install fornite aim bot mods.

  Im not a Microsoft fan either, but this is a completely optional preview update. The reason they send these out before officially releasing it is to find these exact issues.

  Im not going to ask that because I don’t support a tax for the rich that only goes to black-owned businesses. You are too narrow in your use of that additional tax money.

  You have a source for the 40% of black-owned businesses statistic?
