Look at systems like QNAP that allow you to host cloud features from your home. Email or text a link to your file hosted on your NAS! Photo sharing features. Very nice! That said, constant security issues. Now your NAS is pwned.
Oh, you can do something like this today, but not with a mature, security-focused, federated product.
I'm kind of building something like this for friends/family, but it won't be generally exposed to the world, it'll be isolated on a VLAN, with no access to my home net. And it'll have a secure front end accessible only via a VPN.
Not something for the average person to do.
Yeah, not a good time when your NAS gets ransomware attacked beacuse the company who makes it has shit security practices. Build your own with TrueNAS or Unraid who at least have motivation to keep their software secure.
