Why?
1) Some unknown entity(s) has access to all your stuff (personal sensitive family, financial, business data etc).
2) You have control over *no* aspect of quality of storage. How do you trust that?
3) Monthly recurring charge.
4) Temporary internet problems (or other interesting scenarios) utterly lock you out of access to your own data.
Solution:
Several local external USB(or whatever) hard drives, or storage media. Network to another computer(s).
1) One time expense to purchase.
2) Keep one or more copy(s) in a fireproof safe or other secure location. Slightly inconvenient but....
3) You maintain full control.
Technique:
1) Simply copy stuff to the external devices. Once this is gotten used to, it becomes second nature.
2) Research a bit for more complex backup routines.
Happy Backing Up.
