Any privacy issues with family packs?

[oranges]

A couple of friends and I are considering getting a MobileMe family pack and splitting the cost (yes, I realize the storage is less for the family accounts). I was wondering if there were any privacy issues, i.e. any of us being able to see each other's email, private iDisk, etc.?

In short yes, not only that you will be relying on the main account holder to keep the service active. From my own personal standpoint I would not enter into such an arrangement especially afer reading the terms and conditions (the main points in relation to this question are summarised below)

You may be permitted to purchase and add additional “Sub-accounts” (also known as “Family Member” accounts) to your Member Account. You must select a separate Subscriber ID for each Sub-account you create. You are responsible for all activity that takes place on your Member Account and any associated Sub-accounts.

If you use a Sub-account, the Member Account holder has full control over your Sub-account and may alter, close or end the Sub-account at any time, as well as request information related to your use of the Sub-account, including machine and service use information, without notice to you.

In addition, if there is Excessive Usage on your account or any Sub-account (as defined in Section 3 below) , Apple reserves the right to temporarily disable access to information available from your account through a URL, or to "bounce" emails back to senders.

Upon termination of your account you lose all access to the Service and any portions thereof, including, but not limited to, your Member Account (any Sub-accounts thereunder), Subscriber ID, email account, iDisk, domains, iChat account and MobileMe Gallery albums.
