Why doesn't autocomplete help me based on the adjacent problems others have solved? I'm working on writing a shell with autocompletion now [1], and something like crowdsourcing completions in the style of Google query completion has occurred to me. But privacy seems to be a dealbreaker in this case, and probably with many of the applications that Collison is thinking of. If anyone has any ideas, let me know :) I know (and have worked on) about differential privacy but I'm not sure it helps here. [1] http://www.oilshell.org/ http://www.oilshell.org/
