How does this differ from a global file system or something like google's distributed file sysytem?
This is something that can be run on a few computers between friends and all of the data is encrypted such that only the person who inserted it can retrieve it. Google's distributed filesystem probably doesn't scale down to just three or four machines well but this one seems to do so. If by global filesystem you mean GFS this does not require shared block devices. It can be run over the Internet.
