- ptman 6y agoDifferent service. They got most of the data back in the end. And you should always have backups somewhere else. I'm not sure why this is relevant.
- undecisive 6y agoYeah, at the time they got a lot of bad press for their abysmal support responses. Things like saying that their backup solution was not a backup solution, blaming the customer, etc etc. Saying that people should have geographically diversified backups is like saying you should always read the T&Cs of every website you interact with. Yes, you definitely should. But many people would rather just trust the brand, and a trust broken is not easily fixed. And understandably, that broken trust has a knock-on effect for other services in the same brand.
- _hao 6y agoI wasn't aware of this but shit happens. I don't use their cloud (have some e-mail boxes that forward to my own so I have copies), but I can see how something like that can be an issue with people. Also this is just another example of how Twitter shouldn't be used for any serious type of communication.
- marmaduke 6y agoDoesn't appear to affect their DNS but VM hosting service. Kind of embarrassing but is it relevant?
