Google are not the cure to security and privacy. Cloud providers are actually part of the problem for enterprises. Even for existing outsourcing material there are technologies which ensure that corporates or individuals can ensure that the data admin in the outsourcer cannot access information. So far with cloud providers it boils down to everyone has to trust them that they won't access data. The Chinese walls may be there but compliance and regulators are very unlikely to accept "trust" as an option or an excuse if data leaked. The cloud will sweep in but it will have few successes with enterprises until privacy and security is in the hands of the end user and does not have to rely on trusting the cloud providers.
