The very first sentence of the Kickstarter page says, "Space Monkey is the next generation cloud. For $10 per month, you get a full Terabyte (1000 Gigabytes) of storage you can use anywhere, any time."

I know the Space Monkey guys from working together at Mozy and I can vouch that they wouldn't be deliberately misleading about this.

Yes but that doesn't clear up the ownership vs lease issue.

Your argument is that the lease is implied, @emil10001's is that ownership is implied - I can read the page both ways.

The whole problem seems to stem from the lack of an explicit statement on this - perhaps it should have been in the FAQs?

Having a $/month service on top of hardware does not change the nature of ownership. Mixing hardware and network seems to be a constant with SpaceMonkey's communication strategy. I'm sure that a law student could show how none of the KS campaign qualifies as a rental/lease offer.
