> All my data is backed up to cloud

How is that less worrisome? Your data is living in someone else's storage, waiting to be compromised.



Depending on the backup mechanism they use it might be protected with cryptography and a private key or strong password.


Assuming they did all that properly of course....

My phone is not backed up. There's also nothing on it that I could not stand to lose.
