Your documents don’t belong to you if they’re sitting in Google’s hands.

Most people use Google Docs because it’s easy. Because it syncs fast. Because they don’t think it’s dangerous. But here’s what they don’t see:

Every keystroke is logged.

Every revision is stored.

Every document is indexed, scanned, and tagged, not just for “spelling suggestions,” but for profiling.

That draft you never finished? It’s archived.

That private client doc? It’s not private.

And if you think incognito mode helps, you’re dreaming.

You’re not collaborating. You’re volunteering data.

Let’s fix that.

It’s been quite a while since I read Google’s ToS. So I may not remember correctly or may have misunderstood it, because lawyer language.

However, if I remember correctly, Google’s policy is that any data stored on Google’s infrastructure is considered Google’s property.

My favorite is Kindle's. You don't own the books you "purchased"
