Imagine sending Google an encrypted question and getting back the exact results you wanted — without them having any way of knowing what your question was or what result they returned. The technique to do that is called Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE).
Does this make possible federated supply-demand matching, like dating, jobs, and any kind of marketplace?

They’re just supposed to give up the entire business model of the majority of consumer internet services???
Also just because the computations are encrypted does not mean you won’t be able to track database accesses and other signals to understand what information the request contained.
