Clouding...good or bad idea?

Clouding is outsourcing of data that is held in privately owned computers to an other server where the data is stored. Now businesses and individuals are worried about how secure clouding is. The information that is stored is really imporant to many people and could be really dangerous if it got into the wrong hand or gets deleted. Clouding is only done to save money in IT costs of hardware and software but is becoming more dangerous. What happens to the people who do not realize this is being done and looses there information. People need to be more aware of the privacy policies that they are agreeing to when signing up for programs and social networks. What would you do if you lost all your important information or family picture off you computer?
