    21 The canonical way to access tahoe-lafs grids is to run your own client node.  Having one's own node is necessary for the data that should remain private (plaintext, capabilities) to remain on your computers, while storage nodes provide storage of ciphertext.   However, the pubgrid has a publically-accessible gateway; using this means plaintext of files and capabilities are exposed on the Internet.  Even worse, writing to the publically-writable test directory (below) means that others can see and change your files.
