Yeah, that's kinda the issue. Even if pods came first, Facebook has the incentive to give pod storage for free. It's a nice idea, just don't see it taking off.

I also don't see how it's possible to revoke access to your information; once they're given access, there's nothing stopping them from backing up all of your information in their own storage.
