You’ll need to set up an external borg-server ONCE. From there you can additionally sync it to where ever you want using the method you want. E.g. Google cloud. As long as it's encrypted, you don't need to bother about the hosters activities. But forget the USB-sticks. E.g.: Borg to local RAID every 2 hours, sync RAID with cloud every 24 hours.
