User should have control when files are sent.

My concern: What happens when these files have difficulty transferring and the whole computer starts to lag while waiting for the files to transfer or for your computer or device to connect. These companies transferring files in the background is nothing new and have the potential to make your device hang. So why are these things done in the dark, in the background where you cannot see it. Why don't they tell you when they are being sent and even let you say WHEN they are sent. I think there should be laws that say the user should control when any data transfers may be done.
