Join the Cloud Voluntarily, or We Will Assimilate You!

Andrew Thomas in American Thinker has this food for thought:

Now Microsoft and other companies such as EMC and CA Technologies are touting "The Cloud" as a breakthrough that will change our lives forever (whether we like it or not). Desktop computers are obsolete. Internal data storage will no longer be needed, as all of your personal information will be accessed through a sea of hundreds of thousands of remote servers using a handheld iPad or iPhone. Data can be instantly assembled from multiple sources to develop a research project or a profile of you as an individual. How could anything go wrong?
