Travis, WASTE sounds super cool.

     The question is earnest, I literally don't know why you would want
     an
     ORAM-FS for general personal use. The linked paper covers the
     ability
     to recover information in a multi-user environment, and suggests an
     ORAM storage to account for that - I get that. An ORAM-FS is
     different.
     What threats does the added benefit of using ORAM account for in a
     file system? As in; I really enjoy encryption and privacy, and I'm
     looking to get read up on when and where I should apply ORAM to a
     filesystem.

   It is frightening that it is in earnest for you to find more value,
   without expressing a reason to.
   I am reminded of times projects have been disrupted, or behaviors and
   situations been profiled preceding great harm
   What do threats matter, when there is an opportunity to encrypt?
   When something like this is posted, it is a blessing.  Ideally,
   everyone would be using oramfs as much as they possibly could, for
   everything.  To protect their privacy for the times when it ends up
   being relevant.
   The threat is that we might stop doing that.  It is a very, very large
   threat.
