Yes, thanks very much for sharing this Isabel!

The counter-argument to "your crown jewels must be stored on
ASF-controlled services" is often that Some Large Nice Company Which
Provides Better Tools is not going to disappear anytime soon.

Your example demonstrates that it's not only about such companies
disappearing, but also about them having different policies and
practices than ours when it comes to legal issues, real or perceived.
