     5  <ul>
     6    <li>Disk is cheap and getting cheaper. No need to delete in general.</li>
     7  
     8    <li>Put the user in control.  Own your data.</li>
     9  
    10    <li>Privacy and paranoia</li>
    11  
    12    <li>Decentralization is important, but..</li>
    13  
    14    <li>End users won't be dorks.  Must also be possible to be easy,
    15    hosted.</li>
    16  
    17    <li>Content-Addressability has so many great properties (validation,
    18    cachability, etc).  Use it as much as possible.</li>
    19  
    20    <li>Redundancy and over-explicitness is fine.  Compression will
    21    help.  Redundancy and over-explicitness will be convenient for
    22    future digital archeologists, too.</li>
