+<description><![CDATA[I dislike using cloud services because they may discontinue my service [1] or they may do something stupid [2] that negatively impacts me. These concerns, along with concerns about privacy [3], have led me to keep information and content I care about away from cloud services. This does make me wonder, how many people would be distraught about the loss of their content if YouTube terminated their accounts? This is not the topic today, nor is it something I can easily answer, but it is something I wonder about and would like others to consider.]]></description>
