Back in the late 70's early 80's I worked for the University of Colorado as an equipment operator, plowing snow, backhoe work, relief trash truck driver, etc.  Our crew also helped with concerts and special events.  In Oct 1981, the Rolling Stones played for two days.  I was helping set up the stage and the manager said Mick wanted something he  could climb on during the performance.   I happened to have a military cargo net I'd bought as an auction somewhere.  We hung it up and later in the early morning Mick came by climbed on it and said he liked it.  I didn't get any extra money, as I was already getting paid pretty well but they did give me a couple Stones Tee shirts.  Fast forward 38 years, I was watching "Antique Roadshow" last night and somebody had a 1981 Rolling Stones tour tee shirt.  It was valued at between $200 and $300!  Not signed or anything.  Being the nice guy I am, (shut up Dale), I'll sell both of them for $500.  The Medium has never been worn, the Large only a couple times.  Such a deal!

I don't understand why anyone would put THEIR data on someone else's computer aka server aka cloud or whatever... you do KNOW that THEY can look at your files ?
If you need backups, buy some flashdrives and do it yourself. If you ned offsite, safe storage..put the flashdrive in your safety deposit box. BTW do NOT put your will in there !

If it's just pictures for here, Darrin allows you to freely store 200+ pic in your part of the 'file manager'....

Tom, I'm not out of space, there's oodles there yet.
I'm with Jay on this one!!!!!  Did you ever go check your Google acct?  EVERY picture I've ever taken with my phone is on there!!!!  WTH???  I thought that they were all going to my SD card, NOT out to the cloud or whatever Google decides.  AND I don't think there is a way around it!?!?!  I've searched for over 2 hours on how to get it done, but can find no answers.  PFFFFTTTT!!!!
Apparently "privacy" is no longer private......

I shut off icloud after they wanted me to add more storage space and would stop it all together if I could. I download all picture to my computer and then save them on flash drives

Tom, I didn't even know they were putting all my stuff up there someplace!!  You get an upgrade and BAM, they surprise you with some crap they're pulling that you didn't know about.  WE have to agree with everything THEY want, how come they don't have to ask OUR permission to spy on us and use our stuff???  Even though YOU bought it, and it's legally yours, THEY still own how and why it works.  We have NO RIGHTS anymore.....it's all,,,,,,,follow the money trail.
