  • P2P is easy to understand as a concept, but there is some difficulty in imagining using it

  • Battery and signal strength are significant, only generally when lacking

Security

  • There are privacy concerns, but they vary from context to context

  • Cloud services such as Dropbox and Google Drive are stable and dependable

  • There are questions and concerns about the intent and longevity of cloud services

  • Identity management is critical but thought of as a challenging and a chore, so often ignored
