> Are you suggesting that people not connect their computer to the internet? Otherwise, I have no idea what point you are making.
No. I'm saying that being connected to the internet has inherent risks. Being in the internet 24/7 like the cloud would obviously have as much, or more, risks.
>For most people, this is more likely to happen to their local pc!
Statistically speaking, maybe. But we all think that we can keep our data and stuff safer than other people can. At least people have control over something on their computers. Plus, by putting our data in more places, we increase the risk of it being stolen. You will probably already have a local copy. Keeping it in the cloud just adds another point of failure.
