Quote by Richard Stallman
In the US, you even lose legal rights if you store your data in a company's machines instead of your own. The police need to present you with a search warrant to get your data from you but if they are stored in a company's server, the police can get it without showing you anything.
Summary
This quote highlights the potential loss of legal rights in the United States when individuals store their data on a company's servers rather than their own personal devices. While police must typically present a search warrant to access personal data directly from an individual, data stored on a company's machines may be accessible to them without any legal requirement to inform the individual. This brings attention to the importance of privacy and control over personal data, raising concerns about the potential erosion of legal protections in an increasingly digital world.
