I'm completely ok with the police asking me for video from my doorbell. I'm not ok with the police using the third party doctrine and asking the hosting service for my video without asking me. That video is every bit my property as the files in my desk drawer and should be subject to the same protections.

It's a mistake to trust a cloud service with your data and expect no one to take advantage of the fact that they are the ones holding it.

This is true only because our laws allow such a thing. The 3rd party doctrine is something that should be heavily restricted to encapsulate people's reasonable expectation of privacy for hosted services. The least of which for our industry because as it stands it requires wasteful work to add unnecessary security just to play legal games and hurts our ability to sell products that store people's sensitive data.
