If something that is hosted by a 3rd party 'in the cloud' is open source, does it really help? Since someone else is still managing your data.

- wccrawford 15y agoYou don't think he's planning to host it himself in the cloud? Quite a few platforms make this easy enough, if not very cheap.
- rmc 15y agoIf it's open source, you can (presumably) download it yourself and host it yourself. (I know technically with most FLOSS licences you don't need to share the code unless you distribute it, but it would completely miss the point to call it open source and not distribute the code)
