It’s only hard when you’re trying to use it for what it wasn’t designed to do. I hope in 10 years, you still have devices that will satisfy your tin foil needs. I don’t see the cloud services back tracking. In the future, I can see EVERYTHING will be online somewhere. You’re just fighting the inevitable.
In the future, assuming that the Internet and ipv6 become ubiquitous enough, there will actually be less need for centralized servers of ANY type. Cloud or local. iPad turns on. iPad pings iPhone and Macbook. “Any changed files for me today?”[/quote]
Good luck trying to back up those data. Oops, I just drop my iPad. There goes my photos, videos, etc. Also, good luck trying to keep all of those devices safe. Oops, I just lost my iPad. There goes all the personal data I have on that iPad.
