Excuse my ignorance, but NO. Without having read all the details of iCloud, I very much hope the following is possible:

App Foo on my Mac has some data, that it can encrypt into the iCloud, and App Foo on my iPhone get access that data. iCloud is just a storage, but I hope Apps can actually encrypt the data before they load it into the cloud. Now that would be something I would look forward too. Cloud computing is fine, but I want it to be the App developers choice to encrypt the hell out of my data so that iCloud has no idea what I actually own.

Google has cloud storage for all sorts of stuff, but they have access to it.
