Dumb idea #34: Store data in other peoples routers. A packet takes 500ms to go around the world. If you have a gigabit connection on each end you can store whole megabytes of data with nothing but two echo servers! You will need to factor in lost packets/data redundancy, and your ISP shutting down your internet service!
