This is personal or family scale computing, which can then federate to global proportions. We need [[http://www.alainet.org/en/articulo/168669][community controlled]] information systems and to achieve that they must be inexpensive and simple to install and maintain. This is the opposite of the current dominant paradigm of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZmGGAbHqa0][titanic server warehouses]] owned by a tiny number of individuals and it's what is sometimes refered to as [[http://mediagoblin.org/news/userops.html]["userops"]] - i.e. a user being able to do what traditionally only a professional systems administrator would be able to.
With a system installed in your home you also have greater legal protection against unwarranted searches. In general as soon as you put your information onto systems which you don't own then you no longer have the same property rights over it, together with "/no reasonable expectation of privacy/". We all know that's a nonsense, and so maybe we should do something about it.

"With the increasing move of our computing to cloud infrastructures, we give up the control of our computing to the managers of those infrastructures. Our terminals (laptops, desktops) might now be running entirely on Free Software, but this is increasingly irrelevant given that most of what actually matters gets executed on a remote closed system that we dont control. The Free Software community needs to work to help users keep the control of all their computing, by developing suitable alternatives and facilitating their deployment." -- Lucas Nussbaum
