Welcome to the Libertarians! ;-) I'm paranoid enough to not trust off-site storage of any primary documents. If I can't touch it or see it right in front of me, I don't like it. At least when talking about primary storage of documents.
Let's not even bring up password storage, personally identifiable data, sensitive legal documents, files with family members' photos, identifiable information, medical records, etc. Sorry, not gonna happen. That sits on my hard drive so if I need to, I can pull the drive and seal it in a secured space. Let's not even start with reliability of the network... The Cloud is only as reliable as your uplink to it. Cheers!
