When local memory has become so cheap to purchase, to the point where you can buy multiple redundant backups dirt cheap, why would anyone store info on some anonymous server somewhere, without any idea of who else has access to that info? The “cloud” is just another scheme for data mining. If your data is not on a closed system, it has already been comprimised.

What happens if you have a massive fire or flood that destroys that local storage.

I look at it as having insurance that if something catastrophic happened to my house, I can still recover my files.

With the kind of stuff I put out there, it’s like, if you want to hack it, go ahead, you’ll just be bored.
