Computing generally implies even temporary storage, doesn't it? If not then you are correct. Even so, I would be wary of allowing my own equipment to be used for purposes that I did not explicitly approve of. Who's to say my equipment could not be used in legal but distasteful (to me) ways, by companies I'd never otherwise do business with? I don't think that it would be reasonable to trust any distributed computing for hire company to honor my wishes when it came to those things. If history has taught us anything, especially when it comes to computers, it is that the almighty dollar rules over all else.
