That's the statement I wholeheartedly disagree with.
It is INCOMPARABLY more secure in a broad sense just because you control your infrastructure.
Yes, you need to know what you are doing, but this is applicable to everything, does it not? Of course, mindlessly subscribing to bazillion of services is much simpler, but it's plainly not professional.
On a side note, do you think Dropbox is any more secure than any other service, including self hosted? Or any other service?
After years of seeing how those companies are made from inside I am personally quite free from those illusions.
