I don't think its about 'throw it away because he is in jail', Its about ' there wont be any more advancements as the lead developer wont be contributing code'.
Time moves on, and if the filesystem cant advance, its silly not to look for alternatives now when we have the time, instead of later when it bites you in the ass.
While true, if you have posession of the hardware you are toast, if your file system encryption ( and password ) is strong enough it should take them decades to break, not seconds.
The problem is getting the 'fuel' to feed this thing. To really make it cheap you need to grow your own, which is way out of the realm of possibility for the average person.
Its called 'selling out'. They sold out decades ago. Now that they realize they screwed up with the napster shut down assist, and participated in making the p2p market what it is today they want to capitalize on it as complete 2 faced hypocrites.
I still think that if the RIAA hadn't gone after napster, with the help of bands like metallica p2p would have never made it into the mainstream and become what we know it as today. They CREATED the problem the industry is having today due to their shortsighted holier then thou attitudes. They shouldn't be allowed to participate in it now.

Seems we have a difference in opinion. Too bad yours is wrong.
And i never said it was a good or bad thing, only that its happening. That is a debate i wont even get into.
They are growing up, and selling out in the process.
All of them. Or havent you been paying attention to world affairs?
Don't worry, the government cant resist much longer in taxing the golden goose.
That and continuing on their pat of regulating it out of existence. ( if most all content is banned, what value will there be for the network )
No but the services and courts might, since you are technically violating some laws there.
The people left behind may also care, depending on what data you find... You never know what secrets may be hiding in those files, both good and bad.

They have to start somewhere.
Umm i dont agree that 'the police' are the right hands for such power.
The government should not be trusted with such tools. The chance of abuse is far to great.

Ever hear of FreeNAS?
I don't see any redundancy for starters.
Also, a 'data center' is more then just lots of storage, people also run applications and 'services' ( like SQL ) in the "data center".
For something to carry around in your bag or to stick in your garage or the trunk of your car, it might be nice, but please don't misrepresent it.
This is what happens when amateurs take over.
Even if its inefficient, once petrol gets to 6 bucks a gallon, it will be cheaper to make alcohol.
Below 6 a gallon, its a wash or a loss. ( but still worth it if you can, as at least its domestic. )
Ever seen a backwoods still?

They committed a moral crime against society. I think that gives me the right to judge.
I don't call a coordinated attack on our freedom a 'simple mistake' and do feel they should be punished indefinitely.
They grew up? Unlikely.

Why? This is slashdot...
Then i guess their network just sux.
Thats good news too.
While QEMU is available and does work, it could really use some 'datacenter' type management tools.
In this day and age, that wouldnt be practical.
Why break it? Just encrypt.
With these lists, you can make sure no one can work, buy food or have a place to live.
As he sure sounds like he was on something....
They can just confiscate it if they cant read the files.
Might even bust/detain you for trying to hide something, which is quite possible in this day and age.
Same goes for a USB key. You don't cough up the passphrase, it goes in the shredder.
