We take privacy and security really seriously and have designed the brokering process (the part that connects you to your remote computer) to support this claim by following industry best practices.

We are still in a limited pilot program, but one of primary things we are testing is how to ensure that your computer is not compromised in any way.

We think that if we can achieve the technical goals then arguably, having a remote machine is more secure than one that someone can take from your house/car/etc.

That said, it is a really hard technical problem to manage a computer for someone without having any access to it and that is something we are designing out now.
