Surely the Daily Mail canâ

Actually, you may be surprised by how many people there are who have no clue what "the cloud" actually is, including many otherwise computer savvy people. Same for "the internet of things".

Start laughing, then; I've run into a few. Most, however, just have a vague idea that their data goes somewhere but have no clue where.

Funny as it sounds, it's not disparate to think that there are people that have no idea of so many computer things (even ITs departments ). I'm not really surprised to see people that don't know that "the cloud" is just a marketing name.

ya..........its a sad age in which we live where technology is everywhere, and so few people have an understanding of it....

Sure a cloud is a Cloud.
That is why on cloudy days your can store more data. Can't you?
In sunny Florida their cloud storage is very limited. Poor souls.
