I totally agree with you! For the first time in my life, my steemit account was phished just last month, after being here for just 11 days and I was damn pissed for being a victim and one thing that scare me most is what else has been 'taken' from me? The few dollars is not of much concern but what about my other private data in my phone? Now, I am more cautious in what to keep in my private storage and what more to the public cloud backup!
At the end of the day, we are responsible for our own data and I don't believe that there is such thing as "I have nothing to hide" for anyone...
