I can't imagine depending on Google to store anything. They shouldn't be able to even see what links you save.

My work, which is supposed to keep things private for customers, stores so much on Gmail and Google Drive. It's comical to me.

What type of company? I, too, find it comical. There was a lot of cloud resistance due to privacy and control issues in financial services years ago. Concerns were justified. Nothing changed except managements' attitudes because "everybody else is doing it".

Oh in our company the CTO still has cloud resistance... But at the same time also feels comfortable sharing sensitive documents over Skype, Outlook and Teams..
