I've been into this for a long time. I think that 50-250 families can support their own sysadmin, someone who works directly for them and manages all of their tech and interactions with the internet.

true, but this would be ideological rather than economical, which is why it would never happen, unfortunately.

a sysadmin will commoditize the process, make it cheaper, faster, more convenient, transferable (a family moves to a different place), etc. This sysadmin's business would grow, kill the competition, and then we would be back at the current state where we've ceded computing/networking to corporations.

The client would not be the product.
