I've wanted something like that as well, but it always seems to be too expensive. Don't look for encryption at the remote location. There's no secure way to do that, as a matter of concept. You have to encrypt at your end before sending.
I used to use rsync.net, but it was WAY too expensive in the long run. S3 might be cheaper, but the whole having to pay every month thing, well, sucks. If you're interested, I'd be open to trading equal sized hard drives, and then you can back up to your drive in one of my machines, and I to mine in one of yours. I don't want any way to decrypt your data, and you won't be given any way to decrypt mine either. All we would be obliged to do is keep it online, and avaliable, and follow equal rules on what hours and what xfer speeds are acceptable.
I will be at the next meeting. Let me know what sizes you have, I can do 750, 300, 200, maybe 500, I'll have to check when I get home.

" --password-file This option allows you to provide a password in a file for accessing a remote rsync daemon. Note that this option is only useful when accessing an rsync daemon using the built in transâ port, not when using a remote shell as the transport. The file must not be world readable. It should contain just the password as a single line."

Are you guys aware of any trusted remote solution, something I can setup a throttled rsync to with cron, that allows high end-to-end high encryption. I guess the only sensible place to do encryption at would be on my end. I've ready stories of people loosing their domain names due to having done business with Cuba (even people outside the USA) and my country of origin does business regularly in Cuba, so I'm also concerned about that aspect... although i guess that makes the criteria too tough.
I'd settle for encryption and reliability.
I'm guessing i can use fuse-encfs and just rsync it's dir
