Fair point the nice thing about CrashPlan is (or was) that you can encrypt the data with a key you store and retain locally so you effectively secure it using a TNO (trust no one) approach based around a custom key that you hold. Make the key suitably strong using AES 256 encryption and you can sleep pretty easy but I accept it's a very personal decision. Not sure if Carbonite will offer the same security options though, I'll have to check.
