There's no terms & conditions to accept if you setup your own cloud server on your pc. If you want to know why that's important, Google "dropbox privacy issues". And you'll see why some people are thinking twice about paid third party storage. Any because you can run it off your own computer at home, the storage is free and only limited by your hard drive space. Also you can ask Head_victim on IRC, he is quite passionate about this subject. Octatron -- ubuntu-au mailing list ubuntu-au@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-au

Looks interesting but what's the difference between it and dropbox/ubuntu one? - ikt - Original Message - From: "Anthony" To: ubuntu-au@lists.ubuntu.com Sent: Thursday, 10 November, 2011 12:18:04 PM Subject: Finally! A cloud storage server that is multi platform and free I'm not sure if this has been looked at before. But this is too cool not to share.
