[Hidden-tech] * * * Retrieving a photo that I accidentally?? deleted from my phone? * * *

[Aaron E-J]

An issue with many of these services is they mine data to extract people 
and location information and then use it for advertising.  They all say 
that it is "anonymized" before it is released, but if it is then used to 
target individuals for advertising on a personal basis, how anonymized 
can it be?

If you are fine with some selling of your data and you have Amazon 
Prime, I'm pretty sure they still have unlimited photo uploading.

I use https://pcloud.com , which claims to encrypt all of its data, 
although there is an additional cost to have client side encryption, 
which I'm not sure what the difference between normal encryption and 
client side because it is transferred using TLS/SSL, but 🤷‍♂️.  It is 
the cheapest out there that I have found, which is the main reason I use it.
