[REQ] Google Drive File sync
Hi, This may have been asked before.. But since one can store files in google docs storage pretty cheap.... has anybody thought of creating a sync module ? So that one can do a (cheap) cloud back...
The terms of service on Drop Box are very different from Google services.
Actually Drop Box ToS says:
You retain full ownership to your stuff. We don’t claim any ownership to any of it. These Terms do not grant us any rights to your stuff or intellectual property except for the limited rights that are needed to run the Services, as explained below.
Further it goes on to say:
To be clear, aside from the rare exceptions we identify in our Privacy Policy, no matter how the Services change, we won’t share your content with others, including law enforcement, for any purpose unless you direct us to. How we collect and use your information generally is also explained in our Privacy Policy.
This is a far cry from:
you give Google (and those we work with) a worldwide license to use, host, store, reproduce, modify, create derivative works (such as those resulting from translations, adaptations or other changes we make so that your content works better with our Services), communicate, publish, publicly perform, publicly display and distribute such content.
