"Not surprisingly Chandra has a polar opposite view of cloud computing from Richard Stallman. Google is one of the preeminent cloud vendors, so that's hardly surprising. In fact, Chandra had quite a bit to say on the subject and he believes that many of the fears of cloud computing are related more to perception than reality, a misplaced belief that your data is less secure, less accessible and less available. He would argue in fact, that your data is more secure, and as for ownership, well in Chandra's view, the data belongs to you and you can always take your ball and go home if you're not happy with the service."
