I hadn't even thought of that angle! i guess businesses also have civil rights online. :) and mainly: it might help us bootstrap the ecosystem. thanks!

it means we should write the unhosted storage node in AWS, GoogleApps, etc, because that is what these businesses will want, right? should be trivial, i'll put this on the tasks list :)

Well, i´ll tell you as a SaaS provider to small bussinesses and web software provider to large enterprises. The main reason we sell to large enterprises an on premise solution is because they basically don´t trust us or our platform providers (aws, appengine) with their info. Just look at github firewall install and other on premise solutions, they are available because of a fundamental and justified lack of trust on third parties. Good luck on the civil liberties (rights) angle, i believe it´s not such a utopian but more of a practical concern who you trust your info to.
