I work in Information Technology and everything is moving to the "Cloud". Sorry, I don't want dependency on someone else's technology for my personal photos.
When I started to use computers I had to punch cards and deliver them to the computer services center and put myself at their mercy for results. A few years later I had a dump terminal and still was at the mercy of computer services.
Then the PC came along and I was liberated. I had control of my computer life, no longer had a computer tech wanting to know why I wanted to do something and sometimes saying no.
The cloud seems like a step backward in control to the 60's and 70's. It may be useful for companies to avoid supporting computing but I will not surrender to it. I will use it when it helps me but it will never have my original data or photos.
