Yeah I didn't get his comment either. I read their security document. They use SSL to encrypt traffic in transit. That is all. It's not encrypted at rest or in any other fashion. Big deal almost everything is SSL these days during transit the big sales point that catches MY eye are products that encrypt your data at rest like tarsnap, where no one, including the state can access it. THAT is the only products I will use or trust. These guys mine your data just like Google. Don't kid yourself.
