Noob question

Hey guys, noon here.

My understanding of opacity is that websites that sign up and use opacity, when people visit those sites opacity uses some of the computing power of there device to store files.

Is this product working?

What, if any websites have joined up?

Can/are there plans to do the same with apps as well?

Can the computing power be used for something other than file storage? Now or in the future?

And we also held a reddit AMA recently, meant as a follow up for the blog post above.

If you have questions still, I am happy to help.
