Movie data isn't that valuable information to protect for an individual. Instead you can try making a contacts syncing software, or email storage, or even WhatsApp media backup system.

It's not about privacy, but loosing my data from a 3rd party hack or attack.

I can always backup my own code (json file) locally vs. asking letterboxd or imdb to backup my data.

Yes, but again, for most people, movie data is far less valuable than say contacts.
