Nothing new here

Nothing new really. Same problems and risks have been there for years with shared hosting - who else is on your physical server and IP address? Had a couple of problems some years ago when dodgy site elsewhere on the server was busy spamming and we all got blacklisted for a while.

Cloud just makes the problem a bit vaguer and fluffier.
