What could you expect from a free service? They do whatever they can do have a lot of customers but also get a lot of money. Who doesn't want a free product, but doesn't know that their data is collected and sold. Selling data is not that bad in this situation, but losing it to hackers, that's some pretty bad stuff. Thanks for sharing it, maybe people will understand to stay away from free stuff.


I'm disgusted! stay away from free apps, software, etc.! It collects loads of private information, sells for advertisers and MORE it is a target for hackers.
