I disagree. Unless illegal by law, it's your private data. If you share it, it would be something different, but as long as it's private, it's just weird.
Others have them, but as long as you don't use the content PUBLICLY, they don't enforce, which is exactly correct.
Edit: sorry, reread. You are right about the encryption part. I still stand by the rest :)
Well, yes, I see that issue. But also that is not as simple as MS now takes it:
- Childporn; pictures of very young children are stimulating to perverts and while there are definitely very 'wrong' pictures in this category, there are also just pictures you took of your young kids and have in your private folders ; that's not childporn UNLESS a pervert gets his hands on it. Meaning when it is private and yours, it should not be removed. It's memories of your children who naively play in the garden forgetting to put their pants on (I wish I could do that ffs) for instance. In the wrong hands dangerous, private and not shared; perfectly normal.
- Pirated movies; at least here you are allowed to backup movies you own, again if they are private, it cannot be that your account is removed for this; you HAVE the DVDs in your home and you ripped them in case of fire or when the break (and they often do after many years).
Both are crap arguments for removing accounts or even data UNLESS they are made public.
Hence it can be solved very easily ; just scan public dirs.
Others have them, but as long as you don't use the content PUBLICLY, they don't enforce, which is exactly correct.
