I sure want this. Setting multiple nodes might be cumbersome, but it should be worth it for important data.
Also, the use case you are presenting is for overly casual cases. People just caring about their photos could use Flickr or just about any random photo service with a private setting.
Dropbox users are already a step or two further down the line, and there are files like password databases (keepass databases for instance), and other sensible things you'd want to synch seamlessly but wouldn't want to be accessible to anyone else, even with just a warrant [0]

- nopassrecover 12y ago> [0] I think you still can refuse to give a password if I'm not wrong Can't speak for the US, but in the UK and Australia at least it's a crime to withhold a password. Seems the US varies depending on jurisdiction. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_disclosure_law http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_disclosure_law
- RexRollman 12y agoI think forced password disclosure is sickening. In my opinion, they are forcing defendants to assist in their own prosecution.
- moonfern 12y agoI don't think that invalidates the presumption of innocence. It's the digital alternative of a search warrant. Imagine a world where prosecutors could not enter your house.
- leephillips 12y ago"Imagine a world where prosecutors could not enter your house" I think I like this world. It's not the presumption of innocence that's the problem, it's being forced to be a witness against yourself.
