It would be good if AWS and GCE were leveraged by workers at home as generic data centers to store their private data

Working on a UI and server for just that. Plug an API key for a cloud provider into the UI which will help users move data from their laptop to a private bucket for example, or spinup basic infra, enable sharing with other users accounts for opt-in data collection

Sell or donate access to specific data in your account on your terms.

The web is dead. With the right tools anyone can leverage the cloud to regain a ton of privacy and control of their data. Maybe we can dismantle through free market effort, the technocracy middleman now that building such software is trivial

I’d prefer to avoid text blob artifacts if this was being used at work with plenty of text blobs to babysit already

IMO the end days for TF and YAML engineering are close, at least for new work

It’s all HTTP APIs. Build a web UX and store the state in a DB.

SRE/ops people ...at work just use the methods everyone else does

Unless the company still has hardware, cloud ops/SRE is just making their lives harder to be different
