I wasn't going to reply, but after noticing that the sentences were
well-written English, I decided that (for my purposes), it was legit
enough to reply. Then, since I regard anyone that stores sensitive
information in the cloud to be an idiot (that includes those who do
their taxes online when there are other choices available), I decided to
reply. Unfortunately, the following choices were missing:
* Hell, no!
* You've got to be joking!
So, I just replied "No".
One of the big advantages of GnuCash is that I don't have to trust
Intuit (Quickbooks/Quicken) any more. Why would I trust any
online/cloud service when I don't have to? These cloud companies that
offer all the online storage, don't do it out of the goodness of their
hearts. They do it to lock you in.
