Yah, those TOS's have to change....  I had no idea Apple's TOS was so bad...  
Amazon can wipe your kindle without notice, including wiping all your e-books 
with zero compensation or return...

 Both reasons I'll NEVER buy an Apple product or Amazon Kindle....   I'm sure 
some other TOS's are just as bad too...

 When will people rise up and speak with their dollars and not buy these 
products until the TOS gets more realistic?

Subject: [funsec] Will the digital cloud lead to a deluge of privacy class 
actions?

Here's one of my big complaints with the cloud. We have done such a
poor job over the years of protecting data within our purview, we move
it to the cloud and provide another layer of indirection. That's 2x
the point of failures, and at least an additional layer of corporate
rabbit holes.

Couple the cloud with obscene Terms of Service (for example, Apple
states they can lose your data, give it away, or provide it to law
enforcement without making you whole), and the user or consumer is
only going to be abused more often.
