Don’t You Think Plaxo Has Backups of Their Databases?
Posted on May 16, 2008, under Email, Tools and Services.
It’s all over the new "evil" Comcast acquired Plaxo, and everyone, including myself, is all upset. I immediately switched to Schedule World, which was a change coming anyway due to my frustration with the continued lack of support for Google Apps from Plaxo. Polls are popping up on the web asking if people are still going to use their accounts or delete them. Leo Laporte was on Buzz Out Loud and said he immediately deleted his Plaxo account, and I have heard the same from others.
But honestly, don’t you think Plaxo has backups of their database? Now yes, it would be "illegal" for Comcast to use information from accounts deleted, but their policy says Plaxo has the right to change their policy at any time. And lets be honest folks, this is exactly the kind of bonehead move Comcast would pull.
