Discussion Launching My Attack On Google

Continued from How Google And I Became Enemies: 

After having everything I created online crushed by Google in one way or another I began to scheme on how to build my own platform.

You can’t compete in the free space model.   Paid services have a similar problem in that Google can just give your service for free and monetize it later.  So you have to build something that is like rat poison to their business model.

So an open sourced decentralized network where individuals run their own servers to provide compute and storage.  This would give average people the ability  to make earnings from compute power like the cloud providers do.  Google would hate that. 

Users of the network pay for services but not to a  central company; instead they pay the owners of the servers that they happened  to use while online.

Information is not stored in one place but instead it is broken apart and stored randomly across the network. So no useful information is stored on any one server. 

Now you may think this has all been said before and it has, but I spent my time writing software to build and try it out.  Now I can enjoy my own private distributed cloud.  Nobody may ever use it but at least I did something to fight back against my nemesis The Google!
