The question you need to ask yourself is - is your calendar honestly 
confidential enough to warrant that kind of worry? I think that about 
any data I store offsite, and generally I come to the conclusion that 
it's not worth the bother. My personal email was for a time hosted on 
GMail, my calendar is hosted by Google, my data is hosted by Dropbox... 
none of it is actually /that/ confidential - I'm not a spy.

That said, only you can make that kind of call, so it all comes down to 
personal feeling. Just my 2p.
