   Well, the original internet was peer-to-peer. YOur computer relayed messages   
   from the computer on one side of you to the computer on the other side of   
   you. Now, with cloud and hub and spoke, we have become one large mainframe   
   centered in Carrollton Texas. This defeats the purpose of the "inter" net.   
      
   Why are folks mad enough to let other people change their computers remotely?   
      
   I have only one computer I use online, turn it off when I don't use it and   
   only transfer files after I have scanned them.   
      
   I was never a fan of Varoufakis but "cloud feudalism" sounds about right.
