Centralized Distrust
Sunday, October 5th, 2008I’ve posted about my distrust (“Buy a Good Tinfoil Hat” and “Tinfoil Redux”) for centralized (corporate-owned) services. Now the New York Times is actually getting in on the game. I think I covered my concerns pretty well in the earlier two articles, so I won’t rehash them again – but this problem is only going to get worse. We should enter shared computing and data storage of private data, particularly those owned by a corporate entity, with great trepidation.
