The writer does not mention, and probably is unaware of, the principle of translucent data. In a translucent database, the data is encrypted and thus opaque to the operator of the database. Users of the data share keys to unlock the data, and can do anything with cleartext copies that they keep locally. Can real and useful applications be built in this kind of regime? We don’t really know, because hardly anybody has tried. But if it turns out to be possible, it could become a foundation of cloud computing.

However, the past is a map, not a compass. It charts human experience, stops at the present and gives no clear sense of direction. History does not repeat itself nor, as Arnold Toynbee would have it, does it proceed in rhythms or cycles. Events buck trends. Everything, as Gibbon said, is subject to “the vicissitudes of fortune.

...this is the personal website of Bill Dobie. I'm an entrepreneur from Canada who luckily gets to travel the world as we build our business. I get to work on a wide variety of information, data, software, design, energy and shipping problems...and indulge my own fascination with almost all things digital and otherwise. This personal site includes daily links I like, potentially a post on what I'm doing and every now and then brief ramblings on business, life, politics, technology and too much travel.
