Frank Karlitschek founded ownCloud, a personal cloud platform that also happens to be open source, in 2011. Why open source? Frank has some strong opinions about how we host and share our data, and with the recent scrutiny on security and privacy, his thoughts are even more relevant.

A little history on Frank: He is a long time open source contributor and former board member of the KDE e.V.

Additionally he is the co-founder and CTO of ownCloud Inc. which offers ownCloud for enterprises.
