When compared to cloud computing, don't you think that the toilet/garbage bins follow the same system? Once you finish your thing in the loos etc, the flush is a keyboard while the water is the processor.

Similarly, why is e-waste such a big issue and why is it your problem? Apply the cloud and see that the cloud : Does it exist?....
