This proves once and for all: the cloud is not a safe place to store sensitive data.

How? In what way is the cloud inherently not safe? Did you read the blog? The data was compromised not by hacking security but by social engineering the users' themselves and researching their past to figure out what THEY would use for passwords and security questions. That means the Internet is not safe. . . in general.

Yes I read the blog and I’m willing to change my stance on this. The Internet, particularly the cloud, is not a safe place to store sensitive data.

I’m not blaming the cloud directly. That would be like trying to blame my car. The cloud is susceptible to people who get off on stealing other peoples’ personal data.
