Best place to store private pics

[yorksguy]

I have a few private pics of myself stored on my computer. In the past i have saved them on a memory stick. But nowadays i heard you can save them on cloud ???
I wondered if anyone else did this and is it secure.
Thanks in advance for any advice

Unless you want people to see them, you probably shouldn't post anything on the "cloud." Web security just isn't that good. Almost anything can be hacked, and once it is, your pics will be out there forever.

If you're really intent on storing them, try using google drive. Make sure you set them to "private," and enable two step verification with google. This basically restricts access to your google account to a few specific computers. That should make it difficult, but not impossible to crack.

I dont know anything about 'cloud' but a memory stick seems the safest idea possible.

If you're worried about somebody else taking the memory stick, encrypt the contents. With proper encryption and a strong password, it's very hard for others to view them.

Also, don't be like the people who pass on their second-hand memory sticks to others.
