Got my new smart phone and it comes with a free (first 25g is free) cloud storage proggy called Data Cloud. It sounds nice that I can upload stuff from my main computor
and be able to access it from my phone or tablet. My concern is what happens when I load Data Cloud on the main computor. Will DC be some sort of resource hog, will it auto store stuff without me knowing and thus fill the 25 gig free space and then start charging me? Any pit falls I should be aware of ?

Re: Data Cloud
My only real concern with cloud storage is…security of the data. Beyond that…it’s probably a great way to have access to things like mp3s.
I doubt if the proggie is going to start hijacking your PC’s data and start sending it to the cloud, that would constitute malware.
