For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I don't use any online storage (except some of my mail
that Google holds hostage...), so I don't have any
experience with these services.
Do they allow you to strongly encrypt your data on
its way to storage?
Or are you relying on the good offices of the provider
not to peek, and not allow others to peek?
Is encryption an option? Default?
If it's optional, how much overhead/latency does it
appear to add to the process?
