It'd go a long way to re-establishing trust. Thinking about their "Employees cannot access your data" statement, which really meant the exact opposite. And how they didn't immediately back down and apologize, but sorta tried to defend it.
OTOH, since your data is accessible to anyone after they push "return true" as their auth mechanism, I guess it doesn't really matter. If they offered proper encrypted storage, it'd be much more important.
Though even without encryption, a closed-source client that auto-updates leaves one big hole: They can push an update to specific users or activate code for them. With an open source client, that part could be mostly avoided.
Unfortunately, Tarsnap seems to be the only contender in this area (trustworthy backups). On Windows, this means using VMware shared folders.
