I am not saying that I disagree with RMS about the software freedom 
dangers of cloud computing in the hand of proprietary companies. 

What I am disagreeing is with the FOSS world not attempting to even 
touch the technology because the closed source business model is the 
only one we see. The technology is really attractive, and there is no 
doubt that if the right FOSS business model is found, it would benefit 
a lot of people without compromising the software freedom that we have 
today.
