Governments are not the only threat
Bearing in mind the shut down of the internet in Egypt, the recent shut down of Google in China as well as the never-ending malicious efforts of sophisticated hackers (e.g., infiltration of US military networks, or the fans of Dessange who crippled credit card company systems), I am consistently amazed at the rising popularity of "cloud" computing. It seems that individuals and businesses alike would be increasingly interesting in protecting their data.
