• Is cloud storage a new concept to you? Have you not heard of iCloud or Google drive? Cloud backups make a lot of sense for a lot of people. Just don’t put sensitive information on there.

      why would i trust a company with my files when i can simply make my own backups on my own disks without having to pay ransome (subscription) to access my things

      • You should put files on the cloud that meet the two following criteria:

        1. Valuable to you
        2. Not valuable to other people

        This could include your hobbyist cad drawings, your twilight fan fic, or anything else that you need or don’t want to lose but has very little value to bad actors.
