Very interesting. Have you considered the possibility of monetising encrypted backups? Allow people to backup their node on a cloud service you provide. Keep the data encrypted in a manner that only the owner can decrypt. This would give users mental peace, and could be a monetisation source for you.

That's a really interesting idea; I hadn't thought of that approach. My super long shot idea is that enough people would use app that a router company would be interested in licensing the node and app software and providing a self hosting solution for the common consumer.
