It&#x27;s supposed to be a cheap and complete server you can just plug into your own home. Remember answering machines? That they would store your voice mails, and it was a machine in your own home, which you could control all on your own? Your data physically stored under the same lock and key that you use for the rest of your life?<p>That&#x27;s the idea with Freedombox. Host your own email server, website, chat server. Servers nowadays are called &quot;clouds&quot;, so the idea is to have a &quot;cloud&quot; in your own home, under your control.<p>It&#x27;s very similar to arkOS:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;arkos.io&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;arkos.io&#x2F;</a>
