    Hoping that's not a security hole if I spoof a random fnid that belongs to someone else...

    Wouldn't it make more sense to couple the storage time of the functions to a specified timeout?

Some of the fnids do have timeouts, and that's one of a number of ways to alleviate this. We are currently "in The Cloud", on a Ubuntu server at Digital Ocean. We used to be on Linode, which has great service, but DO has SSD, and that has huge advantages with Hubski's unusual architecture.
