Geeez, can we just stop with this, you are now giving your data to google which has your search history, email etc! If you going to have this stance, build your own solution and host it along with your own email and search engine. I personally fear facebook, google more than the NSA.
For me it's not so much about the NSA as about her involvement in torture and war around the world. I know me "rage quitting" dropbox doesn't change a thing but it means something to me.
I know my own solution would be the best and so an actual question. Would it make sense to use private servers (think AWS) to run something custom made or would that just be exactly the same (they would still be able to read my stuff)?
