I also have, and really like, SpiderOak. It has more default storage, it's encrypted, and works great with Ubuntu. This one is the one I use the most for writing projects.
cromag, SpiderOak looks good. But a lot of my Linux friends say all of this cloud stuff (Drive, Dropbox, Copy, Spideroak, whatever) is bogus because they can do what they want with your info and you should just do something like rsync or something like that.

Is there anything to that or are they just paranoid?
