14/ Don't get me wrong; there is a place for a cloud, as anyone that knows someone that's lost precious family photos can attest. I now mostly outsource my email hosting to @mailbox_org . I run my own @nextcloud , but I might buy a hosted version if I want.
My point isn't that the evil is a thriving marketplace for people to run computer services so you don't have to.
Rather, it's telling people they can't run their own cloud or program their own device.
