"But a US judiciary subcommittee on FISAAA in 2008 stated that the Fourth Amendment has no relevance to non-US persons. FISAAA also forces US Internet giants and other tech companies operating clouds in the EU to hand over the data or face sanctions, says Bowden." According to this, they can request data stored in EU server if the company is American. This means that it does not matter where the servers are, they will still get the data. So, time to start to migrate to EU companies for hosting any sensitive information. Anyways, the cloud will never be secure, so the best we can try to do is Encrypt as much as possible, and not use the cloud for any sensitive information. The one useful thing I see from the cloud is: Private Cloud in your house. With fiber getting more, and more distributed, we can soon have our home cloud with Music / Movies / series / news / email / phone all routed to our home cloud then to the devices. Now that would be a nice usage of the cloud!
