Earlier in this thread someone said, "Once your data is in someone else's cloud, you have no recourse."

As a more general matter, do you think that's the way it should be? Do you feel that your information no longer being yours once it touches someone else's server is the right way to do things?

I don't think that should be the case, but the solution should be more awareness rather than regulation. People should realize that they're giving up something to get a free service or subsidized products like Chromebooks rather than government interfering. Restricting people from searching their own servers will solve nothing.

It seems like it would solve at least one thing.
