Marco,
I mostly agree. A bit surprised about a few points. Here’s my opinion and rationale for supporting the concept.

The potential to use the per cloud appropriately and broadly;
to bring healthcare for all
to bring education for all
to bring local agriculture opportunities for all
to bring dignity and justice for all
In fact, the bio-diversity we can preserve in island states would be an example, the cultural preservation for historical parts of the world. We must be mindful of the readiness to take on or practical expectations for those who are what I call global citizens who are spiritually and physically tied to the Order of the Earth (not intended to reference any organization) like the desert or mountainous regions.
First, these populations are not interested in having the earth disturbed and happen to have a pretty good handle on their niche in the world.
Students are likely to gain the most from internet access for all and will make excellent stewards bridging the divide between the elders and leading the youngest into an education for all model.
Let’s say, we are both looking through a practical set of glasses.
a) a per cloud would definitely be Step 1
b) servers in each island or hardest to reach-number of servers and personal storage would be at the local level stakeholders discretion and sponsoring budgets.
c) Intimacy Gradient Level 3 – Proposed – SSE Social Sharing Economy – Every major telecom in the world has an online provisioning tool for major accounts which can assign three types of connections to each per cloud for each user.
c.o. The security protections around video have still never been proven. We never put video on the networks only machine to machine on a point to point connection in the early days of video conferencing.
c.i. If true-the management between end points, recovery and traffic re-routing is a feature in the national account services, including fault tolerance transport video on one connection, data on another and voice on the third.
c.i.i Billing systematically if done by design-I typically align the telecom billing to the chart of accounts.
c.i.i.i. Disaster Recovery-a capability we can plan for and deliver and test as part of the implementation. I’ve done this for 39 branches in the mortgage industry.
c.iv. Government sponsored-a government services agreement (GSA) promises the best price for services and governments are national accounts. Service Level Agreements.
c.v. Governments are the governance role in human rights and civil rights etc. Enables a way to hold them accountable.
d. Innovation – Intimacy Gradient Level 4 Healthcare – Telemedicine my interactions with a medical professional should be through my per cloud rather over the www.
d.i. Billing transactions should be validated by me rather than submitted after a hard-copy arrives or anything similar.
d.i.i. my medical records should be in my per-cloud
d.i.i.i. my disability or my child’s should be published to my school or work or my child’s. Not determined by a survey or anyone other than my medical physician.
e. Intimacy Gradient level 5 education where virtual schools and online home-schools live.
f. Intimacy Gradient level 6 Justice where the family, civil, and criminal court system and any interactions or legal rights are published and updated. A work clearance being one that seems important. A service that informs if any chances are made, etc.
With the above in my view, how can I inspire you to help?
See the Powerful Approaches to Financing Development
An online global platform enables both public and private partnerships by creating a commons driven way to deliver regardless of the offers suppliers and knowing we have a cloud for every person on the planet.
Lean Six Sigma suggest we push rather than pull when we have waste in excess.
We have waste and threats to human rights in each duplicate record held by each company and each agency or branch in government.
We can reverse engineer the way we deliver to people and protect our planet at the same time.
