This is why I've started migrating all of my cloud services to open-source applications running on my VPS. OwnCloud, TT-RSS, SimpleID, etc.

The SaaS model is deeply flawed, and once people start to realize the implications for security, privacy, and ongoing availability, there'll probably be a shift back to running your own software on your own system.

Whomever comes up with a good consumerized VPS platform with an app store is probably going to win big.
