How come you guys demand access to edit and delete my files? Is it even legal?

I'm asking this question the second time, because the first time my screenshot was deleted. Is it some kind of conspiracy or what? 

HP Recommended

You screen shot gets deleted because it contains personal information (your e-mail address). 

 

If you are that concerned with your privacy, why do you publicly post sensitive information?

 

Posting personal information is a violation of the forum rules.

 

Since this is a peer to peer forum, nobody on this forum will be able to answer your question anyway.

 

I suggest you contact the HP executive team at the link below to address your concerns.

I'm not an attorney, but there are probably some terms and conditions to read when you use the software shown in your screenshot, aren't there?

 

It clearly shows on your screenshot, that by continuing you allow this app and Google blah, blah, blah...

 

Don't use the app if you are uncomfortable with it.

HP Recommended

I'm not even sure you're being serious. 

Email? Sensitive information? Please, stop mocking me! Those guys wanna see, edit and delete info on my DRIVE!!!. Tell me you don't notice any difference...

OMG

HP Recommended

I am being very serious.

 

Who's mocking you???

 

I told you that you were violating the forum rules of participation, which you obviously have not read, by posting a screenshot with your e-mail address showing.

 

And that is why a forum moderator deleted your screenshot.

4. Protect privacy - yours and others'. Don't share anything about yourself that you would not want to see on a road-side billboard. Don't post contact or other personal information-your own or anyone else's-or any content that you receive in one-to-one communications without the author's consent. For example, don’t post your computer’s serial # or contact information publically, and do not allow someone you don’t know to remotely take control of your computer.

 

I suggested that you bring this matter up with HP or Google because there is nothing we can do about your concerns regarding the app wanting access to your files, and whatnot.

 

Again...if you are concerned that 'Those guys wanna see, edit and delete info on my DRIVE,' then DON'T USE THE APP!
