Are you too poor to afford $28/year for 100GB?

I don't know how many gigs we are using now, but I'm thinking it's way more than that...

I just do iCloud. 200GB for $2.99/month.

I guess it’s a little pricey for some (Geoff) people...

I take a picture, it goes directly to the cloud. I can access it anywhere. What more do you need?

But is it free? Google, like Facebook you are the product; not the customer. At least with Apple, I'm the customer.

No sir. Not at all. However, when it comes to user privacy Apple HAS stood up to the government about software back doors for spying on users. Google has been silent and complicit. Yes, Apple also does cooperate with law enforcement but when the law overstepped their boundaries, Apple stood up.

Google doesn’t even live by their own credo anymore. “Don’t be evil”
