how does storage work? It seems it would be impossible for a gateway to host the entire internet worth of stuff. And if it was all hosted on the blockchain itself, the blockchain would be absolutely enormous. What about files that you might not want people to see? For example, you don't want people to see what's in your Dropbox or Google Drive. What's something like IPFS? Be better for that, since you're the only one who would know the content ID.
