Wow, thank you for all the concrete pointers! >> In short it’s all about control, privacy, and security, in that order. > I am going to strongly urge you to consider changing that order and move security to the first priority.

Needless to say, for anything exposed to the net all considerations come after security. That's why I need to "understand."
