A couple of observations by me:

i) can the cloud owner 'look into' your file base with them? If it is part of their TOS that they can look into your deposits, then I would be very wary of placing anything with them.

ii) if there is no legal entitlement to the cloud provider to look into your file storage without proper legal intervention, eg warrant, then no-one should know what's been stored.

But hey, irrespective of the TOS I'm sure that the cloud provider would be running some sort of check to ensure that porn or paedophilia type stuff isn't being stored.

Of course, the cloud service could by 'mischance' lose your stored material and then you're up the creek if it's your only data copy.

I don't like the idea generally of keeping info on someone else's server ..... it's easy enough to use an external hard drive, usb stick and sd cards to keep a copy of your stuff, imo.
