yeah, i fear that this is only going to become even remotely viable if, and only if, the user base at large can figure out how to coordinate communal hosting. Perhaps it'll be rather slow, too, and/or difficult to use with a mobile device due to datacaps, low availability of storage space, and limited bandwidth...

if we enter a future where most people have a dedicated spare computer rig in their homes or a subscription to a private webserver farm that exists JUST to host peer to peer encrypted blackbox user-driven-content, maybe it might someday become viable.

imagine if purchasing an allotment of webspace became an essential part of one's online identity every bit as much as having a primary email address for identity verification (as it ALREADY IS, which is crazy enough in itself)

Like, imagine carrying a dedicated mobile device with a 5g data plan, basically just a glorified multi-terabye wireless mobile SSD with a dedicated battery, whose sole purpose is to be part of the cloudhost swarm. It's just part of your extended personal datasphere now. And hell, you can rent out part of its space to companies or people, even. Bytes of Storage become a secondary currency... I'm not saying I look forward to this, but ... I could almost see it happening.
