Lesson number one: Posting is not storing. If you care about
something, keep a copy under your control.
Lesson number two: Don't rely on 'free' services, since they're not
there to do you a favor.[1] If you have something to say, why not
create a Web page?[2]
I strongly recommend viewing Eben Moglen's talk "Freedom in the Cloud".

[1] Granted, I'm hypocritically using a Gmail account.
[2] Actually, I'm of the opinion that the entire premise of the Web
needs to be reexamined and a new system built to replace it.
