Mushroom shaped Cloud

I recall an anecdote, told by a colleague who had just transferred from a UK military project about doing an online search to see if anyone had a reference architecture for the kind of thing they were doing and being surprised to see their own (most secret) documents show up. It turns out the programme manager had bought a new NAS drive for home which (this would have been about 2005) had the then new feature of backing up to cloud AND indexing for search engines. Everything presented to the client was now available through Google.
