I will create encrypted disk images and copy those to the cloud for a backup. But I don't depend on any one of them to be there tomorrow and I certainly don't upload anything sensitive unencrypted.

For the many of you who think I'm silly, read up on Megaupload and the innocents that lost their files when the service was shut down: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megaupload

In other words: don't trust the clouds and if your data is in only one place, it’s not backed up!

I find it amazing that companies will use gmail and google docs to store seriously confidential information, unencrypted on the Google servers. If I was a hacker working for profit or the Russians, my goal would be to work for Google (or Amazon or Microsoft or Apple) to gain admin access to their clouds.
