And that do you really want to put your information into a service that may well go away, rather than trying to work out some way to use it locally.
I can live with the risk; I don't keep data online that I don't have local copies of or would be bothered if it went away.
I'd estimate that at least 50% of the services I use daily now won't be around in another 5-10 years, and 90% of the devices I use now won't be usable in another 5 years. That's the nature of modern technology, and it's not specific to Google.
