And definitely these sorts of reviews do not help at all. So basically I consider that most of the options we find at first sight on the net have no credibility because those services put a lot of effort in their marketing strategies, so I’m becoming more and more convinced that it’s important do a lot of research before contracting any cloud storage because as a community we cannot permit that they play with our security and privacy like it’s nothing.

I wonder if their opinions are conditioned by the fact that they are getting paid for those enterprises (most probably lol) I’ve noticed that regarding cons of some services, frequently some of them are so ‘soft’ which shows their lack of objectivity, and others are almost copied straight to the official website of the cloud storage, therefore their deficiencies are explained in a ‘nice’ way. That’s why I think it is even worse that these types of blogs keep recommending bad alternatives to people while they know that some have weaknesses in many aspects.Īlso, the same happens with some youtubers doing reviews and giving their reviews with no objectivity, and recommending the same cloud storages as per usual. On the opposite, I don’t see Internxt or Opacity in any recommendations and they’re more secure and private than these options. I think it’s so annoying how, for instance, some of the prices of the services they endorse are expensive and also I’ve read that IceDrive’s encryption is a premium feature. I am looking for decentralized cloud storages because they are more secure and solid but the same pages always come up, like IceDrive, pCloud or Sync, and I’ve been researching and there are better options. Maybe people are not concerned about it but, who doesn’t remember when Google got a millionaire fine for privacy violations three years ago or the continuing controversies about their privacy policies? I do! As we all know, they are centralized clouds storage and their privacy policy leaves much to be desired since your personal data may end up in the hands of total strangers. Hey guys! So I was checking different cloud storages and I found out that most of the blogs and youtubers keep mentioning the same clouds in their reviews.įor example, when you search ‘top cloud storage’ in Google the first blogs you find out (like Techradar, PcMag or ITProportal, among others) have in common that their top recommendations are always iDrive, Google Drive or Microsoft One Drive.
