=== Abstention ===

distributed or non-service version or analogs, one can avoid inherent

Other ideas might include:
 
* Cooperative hosting solutions.
* Contracts and accountability for hosting providers
** Ensure that the services provide you with a way to leave (freedom to leave)
* A Network Services "Bill of Rights" (e.g., [http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/wlg/3266a][http://www.camworld.com/archives/001226.html])
* Increased monitering ability for hosting providers
