You don't own the data, and you have no legal recourse if they mess up or lose your data;

Backup your data, pop3 gives you the option to do that easily with gmail. You can also autoforward every message to an yahoo account to backup your data there.

It's funny, I feel that yahoo is more trustworthy then google...!

Google got a lot of bad press for being transparent about what they do with your gmail data at a time where the other mail providers did the same thing but weren't as transparent.
If you want you can also open additional GMail accounts/or any account that has pop3 as throwaway addresses, and pick that mail up with your main Gmail account.
