People salivate so hard at the thought of the high level of automation promised that they're willing to do away with privacy altogether and live in Data Communism.

My thinking is, this will increase the demand for backup and other resilience solutions.

This occurred long time ago comrade 'aeblyve.

‘At a certain stage of development, the material productive forces of society come into conflict with the existing relations of production, or this may express the same thing in legal terms - with the property relations within the framework of which they have operated hitherto. From forms of development of the productive forces these relations turn into their fetter. Then begins an era of social revolution. The changes in the economic foundation leads sooner or later to the transformation of the whole immense superstructure.’

Marx

He wasn’t wrong on that one.
