They are a big company. Their server security is likely much better than your measly home pc. *"So please do all your banking and company research in our cloudcomputer.... " *- (/s for measure)

Their security is only better if you don't take into account how attractive they are as a target. lol

Or everything that happens in between.

@Mac @Flying_Lynx or how much they would like insider knowledge of your spending habits. If ai has taught us anything, it's that the big tech companies want control of your data at all costs

At this point in time you can let AI (for now only Google?) do all your online shopping. (sigh)

Me->AI: WTF? AI: I heard you talking about a street jacket. ME: You bought me a straight jacket. AI: A taxi is on it way.

At this point it's on purpose by Micro$lop. The SharePoint vulnerability last year was the prime example of that. They fixed the problem on their servers, then told everyone about it, and released a patch.

Everyone at my work hates SharePoint. No idea why we have it when we have actual servers that work far better.
