Shadrack Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 More-or-less I'm testing the waters. I subscribed to Office 365 this year, and I want to see if it is worth re-subscribing to next year. Not that I necessarily need to store some porn on OneDrive (I don't plan on sharing it or anything). From what I've read, MS have stated that they don't care so long as you are not sharing or using their platform to distribute the content. We will see if that is true, because their terms flat-out deny you to have any pornographic material. The issue I'm facing now is kind of funny. See, the OneDrive web site rotate through the photos or movie thumbnails inside of a folder and doesn't seem to care how deep the folder is. So for example, I place my porn in the folder "Media\Private\Erotica" and then throw a bunch of Internet Meme pics in the "Media" folder. When looking at the grid view on the OneDrive website, it will inevitably be showing porn as a thumbnail on top of the "Media" folder at times. Seems OneDrive likes to rotate through images and doesn't care how deep they are in the hierarchy. Any ideas how to fix this? Haha, I'll probably remove the porn because of this reason. Perhaps MS knew what they were doing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiCKX Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 You care too much about what MS thinks of a single user's random porn files. Unless someone reports you or you have obvious known names in the files that a bot can pick, the files will stay.

Dick Montage Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Quite frankly, with your run-of-the-mill online porn, your biggest issue is copyright infringement. pqt, PsYcHoKiLLa, T3X4S and 1 other 4 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't care about what MS thinks of it, other than if they think poorly of it then I won't waste anymore of my money on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TAZMINATOR Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 You will need adult cloud hosting service for porn photos/videos. Not OneDrive...

Shadrack Posted July 10, 2014 Author Share Posted July 10, 2014 Quite frankly, with your run-of-the-mill online porn, your biggest issue is copyright infringement. I guess I'm more curious about what automated processes they might use to detect it. I know they have to use something for child porn, right?

Nick H. Supervisor Posted July 10, 2014 Supervisor Share Posted July 10, 2014 1) Why would you put porn on a cloud? 2) Does Microsoft specifically point out that porn is not allowed on their cloud? It's too confusing a situation for the moment as far as I'm concerned. I can't find any reason for using a cloud for that reason at this time. Let me sleep on it...not literally. :p T3X4S 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dashel Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 You will need adult cloud hosting service for porn photos/videos. Not OneDrive... MS can monitor and suspend the account if the content is found. Pretty sure that isn't the case, especially regarding Onedrive for business, because it could be medical data for all they know. Onedrive (personal) is safe unless you share it, for IP reasons primarily I'd guess. As long as its your eyes only, you're good as long as it doesn't trip the kiddie porn scanner. The biggest change is that flagging is now a reviewed process and not an auto-ban. Sadly, no way to correct the boiling up of pics that I've found. Talk about your Charlie Harper moments. Nick, a simple use case is having your phone set to auto-upload the camera roll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe you can add multiple covers if you want it to rotate through a few of your choosing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick H. Supervisor Posted July 10, 2014 Supervisor Share Posted July 10, 2014 Ok, I'll play your game for a moment. I just went and put some porn on to my phone, well under the understanding that those pictures will show under the gallery of my phone. Obviously those photos are for me and no one else, so how do I hide them when showing the decent photos to others? Android works on Linux, therefore any folder that I append a point (.) to makes the folder hidden. When I check my phone's gallery, anything from the .pictures folder is not going to display in the gallery. Does the cloud offer a similar structure? Can you "hide" things from the observer while still offering the idea that they can see if they know the address? As far as an idea goes, it's not one I want to test. But it would be interesting to know, as you said for testing boundaries. EDIT: We're not talking about hiding, we're talking about the ToS with regards to the content. My bad, I have little to offer as I don't use OneDrive. Read the ToS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
