bullshit
my customers data and privacy is not subversive and if you think
your customers data are not subversive enough to protect them
come and say for what company you are working to give everybody
here the chance to switch to someone who feels repsonsible for
what he is doing with OTHERS PEOPLE data

I never said that you or anyone else held "subversive" content on
your machine, nor <i>even</i> that "subversive" content would be an
inherently evil thing. I have lately come to the conclusion that a
little "subversive" capability is necessary to securing one's
freedom. (Which means that I would <i>not</i> lay information with
the BKA or Interpol even if I knew the first thing about your
business. Which I haven't asked.)<br>
<br>
Those people I know, are not members of this list (at least, I don't
think they are). They are, however, members of other lists I am on.
If anyone tells them that The Cloud is coming to gobble up their
data and add it to its own massive data store, with no protection
other than a username and password, they'll no doubt find something
in the charter documents of the United Nations Division of
Sustainable Development ("Agenda Twenty-one") to offer as evidence
why they would never dare surrender their data to such an
institution.<br>
<br>
In sum: I simply wished to point out that certain persons might have
reasons, even more compelling than the simple business reason of
preventing accidental loss of data, to guard jealously the concept
of storing one's own content on one's own machine. Those who might
feel that their governments would accuse them of subversion, would
have the extra security concern of <i>unauthorized access to data</i>.
Or in this case, <i>government seizure of data.<br>
