Xiaomi Inc said it had upgraded its operating system to ensure users knew it was collecting data from their address books after a report by a computer security firm said the Chinese budget smartphone maker was taking personal data without permission. The privately held company said it had fixed a loophole in its cloud messaging system that had triggered the unauthorized data transfer and that the operating system upgrade had been rolled out on Sunday. The issue was highlighted last week in a blog post by security firm F-Secure Oyg. In a lengthy blogpost on Google Plus, Xiaomi Vice President Hugo Barra apologized for the unauthorized data collection and said the company only collects phone numbers in users' address books to see if the users are online.

Did you not understand the part about the plebs taking responsibility, or not, for their own keys (private and public), in the post that you replied to? The plebs can barely understand how to manage their own passwords, let alone the legal ramifications of what it means to be a Safe Harbor.
...I should also add, watch Yahoo claim to be what Lavabit once was.
Bingo. You've just busted the cloud-marketing machine that is Yahoo!
You will have many recoverable tape errors.
