And if you're really concerned with this, haven't we generally solved this problem? Pass the information back and forth completely encrypted and only store the key locally. I mean, obviously the problem is far more difficult than that, but there's no reason we can't have data stored "in the cloud", while maintaining some privacy of information. I suppose what I really should say instead of "we've solved this" is that storing things "in the cloud" doesn't necessarily mean you give up all rights to privacy. There has to be some middle ground here.
