    So is pretty much all of the cloud services the average user already subscribes to. People still use them though.

      Agreed. This is especially bad, though, because if it’s compromised they basically have hardware-level access to your machine. Unless you’re using encrypted swap, and I’m not sure how standard that is.

        Well, assuming you’ve already gone through the effort to write a custom kernel module to offload your swap pages to Google Drive, it doesn’t seem like that much of a stretch to have it encrypt the data before transmitting it.

          Is that what this would take? Then yeah, you’d hope somewhere in the process you consider this.
