Also just to mention https://remotestorage.io/ https://remotestorage.io/ has the same ideals, but I think it is flawed in terms of adoption because as a user you have to find somewhere to store your data that implements the remotestorage.io API on the server side. And really there is only 5apps doing that. So now you are having to administer your own server, or use 5apps beta product with a 1Gb limit.
This idea allows you to hook up any online storage with any API, and will encourage developers to offer a wide range of options. I want to include remotestorage.io as an option because I like their being a self-hosting option with a well written standard. But on the other hand I want people to use the damn thing so having the major providers is important. And with encryption you could prevent them from spying on your data.
