I don't see it happening because The Internet of Things will lessen the NSA's dependence on universal Internet access.for keeping track of Americans.  There will be no need to build out costly broadband when you can just build backdoors into appliances and toilets...   TL;DR: stock advice ->...

Backupsy and Hostigation are two VPS providers that use it for VPS selling...

^^ very new drive in this server :)
