I disagree. There are many signs that at least some people are moving in this direction. Think of things like SpaceMonkey, OwnCloud, various plug computers, the 'Raspberry Spring' (small embedded ARM devices) and many others besides.
Sure, these don't fulfil all of your criteria but the fact that they exist at all indicates that we're on the right path.
- Xylakant 13y agosome. as there are some people encrypting email, some people not using cloud storage, some people not on facebook.
- amirmc 13y agoSure and In The Beginning, there were only some people on Facebook, some people using email and some people using the cloud (only some people were on this internet thing, back in the day). It's fair to say that the relative number of people doing something right now may be low but it's completely wrong to extrapolate that to the future the way you're implying. We don't know what will happen. My post above is attempting to support my view that there is growing interest in solutions like the kind you asked for (e.g SpaceMonkey raised 3x its funding goal on KickStarter). Whether these solutions actually become successful in the long term remains to be seen but I feel we're further along than your comment suggested.
