Look, no one wants to accidentally (how ever well intended) let sensitive corporate or personal data escape to the wrong people. If you have concerns about this, and are unsure, remember the days after 9/11 and think about all the data that was destroyed along with all those poor souls. Focus on the data for a moment.

Many of the companies in the twin towers had data backup centers elsewhere in the building, and, the originals with all the backups were lost forever. I watched as companies that had offered secure backups of your data tried to put the disaster into an educational light. To get your data geographically out of the area to be safe.

I bought some stock in a couple of those ventures, thinking someone was really going to drive the point home and people would begin to utilize the technologies. It NEVER happened. The stock numbers remained flat, and, everyone seemed to go back to previous practices.

Putting personal or sensitive corporate data on the web in any format, encrypted to the nth degree still seems to be an area people just don't seem to like. They want to do localized backups, or even worse, no backups at all.

I personally would love to see this take off, but there is going to have to be a LOT more courting of the general public before anything really makes an impact in this arena.

--just my 2 cents..
