I think this isn't new?

Some few years ago, someone tried and lauched something similar... but you can run in your browser.

I am right no??

I would agree that most people may store and manipulate their data in the cloud.

That said, there are still plenty of people, myself included, who still want to and need to control their data and its distribution.

Some data are only of great interest to a few. Even if I was offered a near perfect encryption storage, I would still retain and control my data. Its that important to me. No doubt, others will feel the same.

I see the cloud as good and bad. Yes it can be a benefit to those who like to share information, however, that data can be used by others for actions not necessarily benefiting the users of the Cloud. Fears of 1984 coming true are still a likely possibility with the Cloud approach.

Just my opinion,
