Why IBM's New Cloud Lab Is A Good Idea

,----[ Quote ]
| While there isn't going to be a specific 
| focus on open source at the new lab, it won't 
| be a surprise to see open source cloud 
| advancements come from it.

Diaspora: Freedom in the Cloud?

,----[ Quote ]
| One of the key thinkers in the free software
| world is Eben Moglen. He's been the legal
| brains behind the most recent iterations of
| the GNU GPL, but more than that, he's
| somebody who has consistently been able to
| pinpoint and articulate the key issues
| facing free software for two decades.
| Recently, he did it again, noting that cloud
| computing is a huge threat to freedom.
|
| Even if you don't use social networks like
| Facebook, your children probably do (or
| will). And the push to move practically
| *everything* âinto the cloudâ means that the
| issues are not just about personal
| information: businesses, too, will find that
| they are essentially placing key competitive
| information about themselves on somebody
| else's computers a long way away, with
| little real control over what happens to it
| once it's âthereâ.
