Google now minus Google Plus: Social mini-network faces axe in data leak bug drama

No lose

It was always shit. There are so many other bugs going ignored although technically not security issues. The one where you store your passwords in Chrome (people at work do) and then wonder why they can't login to a website. I told them for years Chrome has had a bug where, despite you telling it your password was updated it still insists on filling the form in with the old password so the login fails.

The fact Google Drive for desktop doesn't audit. So if your company encourages its users to "save everything to your Google Drives", you can then use your personal PC to steal loads of documents with no audit. Because certain companies haven't bothered to pay for proper audits, it then allows said users to install Google Driver for Desktop (or whatever its called now), sync your work Google drive with it, which downloads all the docs to your person PC (that probably isn't encrypted) and the place of work won't be able to prove you've done this due to no active audits of Google Drive for desktops.

Warned a company about that before, was ignored. I'm 99% sure a Director then did as above to steal company docs before leaving and setting up a private business in the very area they used to work in said company.

Nice.
