Comment on ZeroDB – A Peek Under the Hoodparent

I assume michwill is probably taking notes!

Yes, you're correct! ;-)

"one table, one source of truth, period," or "Use for write-seldom; read-often applications only,"

Right. Another model - "write and read only your private information". So, three use-cases here

information leakage issues

I already think, for solving this we probably should just switch to ORAM. Very valid concern! That said, we cannot really deduce the order of objects referenced in leaf nodes (and there could be a thousand of them).

In any case. Expect our implementation to be extremely simple (but useful) first. Probably suitable for "users record their private info" application. Then we'll be addressing scalability issues, information leakage etc.
