I know slashdot does not generate articles. It only links to articles, sometimes in a VERY misleading paragraph, than leaves some uninformed geeks debate about the misleading text. The article you most probably missed is some other place[1] And the text supports that first paragraph of yours. But nothing of the rest of your text.
So our data will be perfectly safe with them, right? Right?.. ;) Seriously, though, this is very, very bad for us. Normals will point to that and say "hey, Google does the Right Thing and we can be safe there, so we should all use Google now. They have encryption and stuff."
Could you expand on «this is very, very bad for us»? [1] http://www.itworld.com/cloud-computing/369304/google-encrypt-cloud-storage-data-default
