Against modern sophisticated governments who are busy, lazy, distracted to ask Netherlands to give them my data. I'm not exactly a high priority target. All I have to do is to make it a little harder for them to access my data.
Also, proper client side encryption is really difficult to break. Usually they need to compromise the client in order to read it.
What are they going to do, fly to my fringe country, knock on my door and politely ask me to stop storing encrypted blobs on their servers? No, they will not. First, their TOC does not forbid it and second, they are way too lazy to scope me out of the crowd, and third, they will only start shutting users down if their free plan starts costing them too much. I've been doing this for years and nobody seems to give a frak (Google included).
And I am just a regular guy who wants to make sure his code and passion projects (and personal / family photos) are never going to get lost even in a case of disaster. I never in my life did anything to warrant government attention.
Let's be honest: all those big players sing all our data to whoever they like, any moment they like. Pretending one is better than another is dishonest.
