It says you have to download their mobile app and make an account. I am at work so I can't delve into it much.

lol @ "QQ account". Any gamers here? :lol:

Not sure if I'd trust anything being uploaded onto a Chinese server.

Yes it matters. Every photo of mine that was heisted off a forum page has shown up on other forums - in China.

So if they steal from here and put it up over there is it that much of a difference if you put it on their servers and they steal it?

You really believe what you just mentioned? The difference is that "they" and "I" are different. My shots are mine to use as I wish. If a pic of mine ends up in someone else's post with the claim that they took it, then yes, that matters to me. I can complain here, or at Miranda, or at Dgrin, or most anywhere else, and they'll take it down and ban the user. Not true in China, because they just don't care about copyright issues.

I'm sure it will be worth much less than what you pay for it the first time they crash and you lose everything. China has shown that they don't feel much obligated to protecting anything; their people, environment, culture. Why would they feel any obligation to protect your data that you are storing for free?

You are saying every photo that was "heisted" was taken from what I assume are the US servers/forums you have them on and posted in China.

What I said is it any different if you host them on Chinese soil and they are stolen?
