1. Predicting that it will happen isn't the same as saying that it's a good thing. 2. Even if it does happen, that doesn't mean everybody would be forced to use it. If you don't want to put your data on Dropbox you don't have to. 3. From a technical perspective, isn't it premature to conclude that hosting all our data means the end of privacy? For example, I can host all my data on my own server and connect all my devices to it without compromising my privacy. I am sure smart people are working on other solutions. (I think the end of privacy will pretty much happen anyway, but I'm not sure that cloud computing will be the culprit.)
