solarbirdWow screw you, Anker! I've bought a bunch of their shit over the years but to hell with this - they're blatantly lying to customers and not just not putting customer photo data on the cloud (in direct contrast to advertising), they're taking facial-recognition-processed photos, IDing the owner (and others?) and keeping the data after accounts go away. This is some serious bullshit.
