  If I want my files highly available and open for collaboration, I’d trust Google’s security over rolling my own.

    Google’s non security you mean, since they can see all your files, and scan them, even zip files.

    That’s not secure.

  I would say don't trust free services in general. There are plenty of paid service providers that handle your data well.

    TbF I pay for Google drive (but still don’t trust them)

      Right, Google isn't one to trust. So paid services and clear data handling practices.

        Paid services doesn’t equal security though. I think box.com has pretty good security and is free. Microsoft paid onedrive is a little sketchy to me. Not a drive service, but 23andme is a good recent example of non ad based services not necessarily being more secure.
