Orb and Security
Hey all,
As my user title might suggest, I'm a little new to PPCs and Smartphones. Today I discovered Orb, and to be honest I nearly peed myself in excitement. Within minutes of installing I was watching the videos on my computer from my phone, and dancing around like a maniac.
But, for however cool it may be, is a service like this really secure? I've read a few different reviews of the service and they all vaguely mention encryption and security, but I was wondering if anyone here could reassure (or deter) me a little bit more? Honestly, it seems a bit... suspicious that I can remotely access my entire media library from my phone, for free, whenever I want, and that in doing so I'm not creating some blatant privacy vulnerabilities.
Is my media libary now open up for everyone who uses Orb? Is Orb now tracking everything I play, and finding out about that mp3 I downloaded 10 years ago from Napster? Will my musical tastes be itemized, categorized, reviewed and prioritized to flood my inbox with fantastical suggestions for future album purchases?
Any more info would be greatly appriciated!
