<How do we give the cloud back to you?" he said. "You should be able to, if you want, run your own cloud."

That is the most profoundly powerful statement in the article. It does make me chuckle. Cloud, while the technologies and applications are are light years ahead of where they were 15 years ago, it still feels a lot like "hosting". Once you sign up, you may feel free....but they still own you. And, the prospect or specter, depending on your point of view, for co-mingling information through cloud is totally mind boggling.
