Once upon a time, I tried to use a "bookmarking" service. It was based on the same software this service is. Operated by the same people, ie people you ought to trust.
After a while the service *disappeared*. I'm really saying disappeared because it was gone, no notice, no data, nothing. Never even got an explanation from the admin. - and my bookmarks are gone.

I'm not crying over it, but sometime even the people you trust can't be, or fail to keep your trust.

As for Pocket, between you and me, I see three problems:

1. The way it was handled. From not telling anyone to not riding the trains (ie code got forward ported to Aurora and Beta for the sake of pushing it - lowering the quality and breaking the engineering process)
2. It replaced / destroyed the "Reading List" feature interoperability that was in Firefox for Android, and that IMHO should have been on desktop a long time ago. Worse is that I had started using it on Nightly and got foobared.
3. I can't wait for Pocket to be Acquihired by one of the internet giant and be closed.
