Abandon ship!
Also, will somebody please make a simple private picture app for grown-ups? I'd love to be able to share stuff with my sig other/parents/grandparents - and that's it. I can't recommend SnapChat in the state it's in now.

My GF also uses a private Instagram account for this, but that's even less private than a Google service.
