So yesterday Microsoft/Danger indicated that they had managed to get back most of the users’ data that was ‘lost’ as part of a problem with their core database earlier this week. Unfortunately not many of their customers are amused and have started a host of legal challenges regarding the system failure.
Most of this revolves around the fact that the service is billed as a secure cloud computing service – so the lawsuits are alleging false advertising and negligence. I personally would stay away from services offered by Microsoft or any of their subsidiaries – given their past track record regarding security, this is a prudent option.
