I think there are going to be a lot of horrible problems in the next five years.<\/p>\n<p>With the cloud, you don\u2019t own anything. You already signed it away through the legalistic terms of service with a cloud provider that computer users must agree to. I want to feel that I own things \u2026 A lot of people feel, \u2018Oh, everything is really on my computer,\u2019 but I say the more we transfer everything onto the web, onto the cloud, the less we\u2019re going to have control over it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Exactly.<\/p>\n<p>Why shouldn\u2019t you own, control and secure \u2013 and keep private \u2013 what\u2019s yours? Why should you pay for simplicity with these things. You shouldn\u2019t. There are tools now \u2013 I know, because we built them \u2013 that give you, your employees, you friends and family and your customers, the ability to quickly, easily and cheaply share and synch files without losing control. In fact, ownCloud integrates into the tools most IT departments already have to secure, track and report data and data usage.<\/p>\n<p>More and more devices, more and more data, greater connectivity \u2013 listen to Woz, he\u2019s been right before and he\u2019s right now.<!--:--><!--:de--><br \/>\n<!--:--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A post by Barb Darrow at GigaOM caught my eye this week: &#8222;Woz worries about cloud computing\u201d It caught my eye because, you may have guessed, his dire warnings are EXACTLY why I created ownCloud two years ago.
