> did i hear cloud-backed directory entries?

I'll bite:

If the cloud were to be a mere repository of (encrypted) Venti blocks,
wouldn't it be a very useful tool?

In fact, how do we know that Al Qaeda are not already storing and
distributing all their plans for nuking New York on line as
steganographically encrypted Venti blocks on porno sites?

Oh, I forgot, Al Qaeda is not allowed to download  from sites under the
control of the U.S. Department of Commerce (right department?  hard
to remember).
