Online storage is very safe and is rapidly becoming more accessible for the general public. As PoP mentioned keeping data secure is their top priority, well other than attracting paying customers, their business model relies on keeping stuff locked down. I have been to several Cloud conferences and at the last event it was mentioned that if enterprise is not spending at least $100K/year on security they would better off (safer) keeping data in the Cloud. If it makes people feel better they can always encrypt sensitive docs/archives before uploading to the cloud.
