That seems to be the argument of the US government. More or less, their theory goes - since there are two contracts separating you, the creator from whomever is the storer, then your rights of ownership are reduced.

That's a very interesting theory indeed. I wonder if it also applies to movies which have a contract with a distributor and the distributor has a contract with the theatre ...

There are people who WANT those legal issues. Those PEOPLE are holding back cloud computing - and humanity, for that matter.
