You can set up your own "cloud" server and have all the benefits without the cost or legal issues.
Anything that is stored on a cloud server can be subpoenaed without a warrant. Anything on your own computer/server cannot.
Your own server can be made to be at least as secure as a cloud service with the added advantage of security by obscurity (Amazon is a target that people can aim at, whereas people won't even know your server exists, let along where it is).
I think you could guess where I stand on Chromebooks.
