I still feel that way, but I'm more concerned about lock-in than control. I can deal with losing an issue tracker, but at least I'm not going to lose the GitHub repo; I've my own fully-independent copy.
The other advantage of using multiple servers, some private, is that it becomes OK to just push to GitHub when you're "done", because for better or worse, pushing something to GitHub that anybody else uses is de facto publishing it.
