Controlled by who?

“the Cloud” isn’t just a cool turn of phrase for net-based computing; it’s net-based computing that has been massified on an old industrial model of scale. We do not need to throw out the power of net-based app paradigm when rejecting centralized corporate control, we just need to develop ways for distributed instances to work together but remain autonomous.
