Backblaze responds to claims of “sham accounting,” customer backups at risk

Sheesh. Better setup a secondary destination for my customers just in case.
3-2-1 rule also applies with external providers
Just a reminder that a cloud provider can oopsie delete your data
The customer was fucking lucky they had their data also in AWS. many companies don't do multi cloud backups.
Backblaze deleted my project drive for a multimillion dollar project I was archiving through their desktop sync. It's largely my fault for not noticing the drive had failed when considering their upfront policy about them deleting your backups after a month of inactivity. Luckily it didn't have too big of an impact because the most important files were backed up elsewhere. I do wish their desktop app had better warnings about imminent deletions though.
