The cloud and how great it is

The cloud- a shift from storing software in the hard drive to the internet (which is basically stored in the hard drive of the service provider). Reduces cost and computer load for those with multi-device. (Also part of Moore's law section)

Very Very large number of possibility/ data from sensors = optimisation = less time spent + less money spent

How does these work individually?
How do these factors interact with each other?
What does it mean for us as individuals?
What does this mean for democracy?
What does this mean for global politics?
