<br>
I think I'm way out of my league when I try contributing to this
page... can't help opening my mouth though...<br>
<br>
Please remember we're talking about RasPi here... running
OwnCloud for a single user is already pulling this machine to
its knees.<br>
If you'd start adding TOR, mailpile, etc... I'm assuming this
would really start running really slow.<br>

You can actually have a look at arkos (arkos.io) in its current
state to get a sense of how OwnCloud, Tor, et al perform together on
a Raspberry Pi. The most recent revision includes the ability to
run a mail server-- it doesn't sound like the installation is easy
for that yet but you can at least get an idea of performance with a
mailserver running.<br>

<div class="moz-cite-prefix"> Now add another thingie called
XBMC... and you'll probably get a media centre with a framerate
of 1fps at best. I doubt this would give a good experience - and
would be counter productive: people would consider the
RasPi/Freedombox as a piece of crap.<br>
<br>
Keeping it lean and spiffy is the way to go. Obviously, you
could have some torrent client running on your Freedombox, and
use a separate RasPi to function as a media centre, and possibly
even pull its (legally or otherwise acquired) movies from your
freedombox.<br>
<br>
This way, you're actually putting your RasPi in good use twice
(but you'll need 2 of them). :)<br>

<pre style="white-space:pre-wrap;color:rgb(0,0,0)">My (personal) idea of a "FreedomBox" is the suite of software built and loaded onto a piece of hardware from the Freedombox 'package'. Not necessarily Plinth, as that is just a configuration program, but things like TOR, privoxy, JWChat, and other stuff like encrypted email. </pre>
<pre style="white-space:pre-wrap;color:rgb(0,0,0)">I *really* like the stance this project has taken to use Freedom-maker and Plinth to make the build and configuration as easy and painless as possible. </pre>
<pre style="white-space:pre-wrap;color:rgb(0,0,0)">My inspiration for this idea comes from the fact that I've tried to describe Freedombox to my friends and family and haven't gotten much of a reaction from them. They think it's a cool idea, but the immediate benefit to them isn't apparent. However, they all get excited by the idea of a media center... and wouldn't mind contributing some network capacity to the TOR network while they're at it.</pre>
<pre style="white-space:pre-wrap;color:rgb(0,0,0)">If xbmc and whatever other packages were needed to get a basic media player running on the Raspberry Pi were included in the freedom-maker script for that hardware target, it would make the Freedombox a much easier sell to the common person. This same notion could be said for the personal cloud storage, which I am also stoked to see being added to the project. The benefit for the non-privacy-sensitive person is clear and immediate, and would make adoption and proliferation of the privacy-promoting software easier.</pre>
