Adobe Elements and Facebook

I have used Elements for yrs. They came out with Revel their "Cloud". Without my permission they downloaded my files/pictures. The biggest problem is I had accidently scanned some of my medical records(and still do sometimes. Not real good with computer stuff). These were picked up in Elements. Now they got down loaded to the "cloud". Call me paranoid but I don't trust any "cloud". I have an external hard drive that works well. When I tried to delete them, it took them out of the program with information I did not want to lose. Now a few weeks later when I try to download my pictures to Facebook, I am getting the following message:

"Photoshop® & Adobe® Premiere® Elements Uploader would like to access your public profile, friend list, email address and photos." I refused to accept. I tried to go to my computer files and I could not send them from my computer skipping Elements. I do not think anyone should be held hostage to give out this info. I have to wonder how long it will be before all companies try this stuff. I had the idea of a "cloud". Opinions?

Another member raised the same issue -- that Adobe has moved his files to Adobe Revel without his permission. That was not what happened. See my explanation.
