Backup to your friend's machine to avoid Assange's data thieves

Proposed is a peer-to-peer "cloud" backup system in which the user picks SPECIFIC users with which to share his/her information. (I would trust my closest friends with my most secret files more than I should probably trust a large corporation, but it would be a pain to use a thumb drive for this sort of work.) The usual encryption schemes would be employed nonetheless.
