What should we use then? If someone tells me to change X program, please, give me alternatives, otherwise, I'll stick with that.

PS: Quite ironic to see him saying "get rid of Google", through an Hangouts session.

It's only ironic if you didn't read the first half of the title. He wasn't looking to keep this call private, was he?

Seafile is great if you dislike SpiderOak's closed-sourceness. Open source android and desktop clients, client-side encryption, can start with a free service then move to self-hosting when you're so inclined.

imho, it's the best option until we get a good user-friendly decentralized offering.
