  • Today all of our data is fragmented across silos.
    • Data has combinatorial power; that power cannot be easily activated across silo boundaries.
    • The best case is that your most valuable data is in a single silo.
    • But even then, it's not your silo, it's the silo owner's!
    • They get to decide what features to do in it.
    • They don't care about you.
    • They don't need to.
    • You're just a statistic to them.
    • It's hard enough to leave that they barely have to give you even a superficial reason to stay.
