Personally, I’m bloody annoyed, having recently taken out a paid (the cheapest, fortunately) contract with Evernote precisely because of the offline/local notebooks feature.
However, it’s not a complete deal-breaker. Just annoying. And so Evernote. Not dissimilar to the way Google suddenly nukes stuff, mind you. One of the reasons why I’ve toyed with but never actually used a Blogger account.

I’ve come across a number of blogs where people ask what all the fuss is about with storing their information online. Personally, I don’t believe that any information is benign. You may store your shopping list in Evernote and think, “so what?”. One shopping list alone is of no real consequence, but if you used EN for 5 years and stored all your shopping lists there, anyone having access to your EN would be able to build a profile of you that can damage, as has already been mentioned, your credit record or begin to mess with your identity. Multiply this with all the other information about yourself that will be stored in the same account and it becomes worrisome. I’ve stopped using EN simply because it refuses to add proper encrypted security, which I believe to be irresponsible for a company encouraging you to store all your information in it. There are to many clever hackers. Zero knowledge encryption is the only way I would store information online.
