# Principles
**TODO:** elaborate. This is just a quick sketch.
* Disk is cheap and getting cheaper. No need to delete in general.
* Put the user in control. Own your data.
* Privacy and paranoia
* Decentralization is important, but..
* End users won't be dorks. Must also be possible to be easy, hosted.
* Content-Addressability has so many great properties (validation,
cachability, etc). Use it as much as possible.
* Redundancy and over-explicitness is fine. Compression will
help. Redundancy and over-explicitness will be convenient for
future digital archeologists, too.
