    Yeah I read that but I don’t have the knowledge to say “what a rookie mistake” or “in hindsight that was a bad idea”. I take it, it’s the former?

      No, it’s firmly into “utter incompetence” and “Jesus Christ these people are ignoring basic practices”

      For every cloud backup you have, there should exist a physical backup somewhere. It can be a drive or a dvd-rw or a usb. Whatever you choose just make sure you back it up regularly and keep it disconnected from your PC to avoid issues like a randomware attack infecting everything.
