It's worse than stupidity: it's a marketing hype campaign. somebody is saying this is enevitable - and whenever you hear somebody saying that, its very likely to be a set of businesses campaigning to make it true" (siehe ''Above the Clouds: A Berkeley View of Cloud Computing:'' http://d1smfj0g31qzek.cloudfront.net/abovetheclouds.pdf) ------------- Stallman, who is a staunch privacy advocate, advised users to stay local and stick with their own computers. "One reason you should not use web applications to do your computing is that you lose control," he said. "It's just as bad as using a proprietary program. Do your own computing on your own computer with your copy of a freedom-respecting program. If you use a proprietary program or somebody else's web server, you're defenceless. You're putty in the hands of whoever developed that software." ------------- ## You can even more obfuscate your email address by adding more uppercase letters followed by a leading and trailing blank. ... ---- CategoryHomepage
