Have a little respect for cloud storage

Conserve cloud storage to give chance to
less served users and respect the health of the
provider company's employees

Cloud storage is essentially storing your data on servers around the globe. Convenient it is, you can upload data files to computers located in different countries. The Internet platform company is very protective of the data their users trust to store, so in exchange; the users should have at least a little respect. Cloud storage services have relatively limited amounts of "free" capacity and that's a good thing, as there are billions of people worldwide. Imagine the stress on computer resources that comes with serving billions of users. TeraBox is an exception, as it provides 1 TB free space and grants "premium" access for watching advertising. Cloud storage is meant to complement your computer's local storage.

Files that occupy gigabytes or contain highly sensitive information should not be uploaded to cloud storage services. Occupying gigabytes or terabytes with huge individual files adds unnecessary stress on storage and telecommunication components. Uploading much smaller data files is about respecting the hardware limitations of cloud storage systems. On sensitive information, human moderators of cloud storage could see what you upload. Witnessing content that isn't supposed to be on an Internet platform is distressing to the moderators. You can respect the mental health of human moderators by being watchful of what you want to upload.
