    No, only freenode. Do we consider them trustworthy?

      Of course! Why, only two months ago it was among the most trustworthy public IRC networks in existence.

      No! But adding another party adds a another risk, however tiny! And uh I guess ignoring that irccloud is probably gonna have invested more into security than the geniuses behind the "hm maybe we should ban irccloud" operation, but, that's just details!
