"Everything moving to the cloud" is far from inevitable, and represents a concentration of power. Of course existing tech corps want that, they proposed it and have pushed it in the first place, but I strongly disprefer my personal things being on someone else's computer, don't need a ton of computer to host them on the internet myself for my own purposes, and am far from alone in this. The logical endpoint of priorities of large businesses and governments are not inherently inevitable

Conversely, the present concentration of power, and the lack of any viable effort to reduce it, can be used to force moving everything-that-matters to the cloud. Not a good outcome but inevitable if things stay the same.
