no because you cannot even log into the machine without a connection... there
is no offline mode at all...

google sheets isn't all that bad and there are privacy settings where you can
allow others to see the sheet or not... plus the connections are over https
which is secure... but yeah, it depends on what data you are putting in the
sheets in some cases...
