There is a lot of money on the table for Backblaze or any other party to organize more user friendly software that fills the gap between sync and backup, preferably both. Dropbox syncs my iPhone photos and all machines seamlessly. Compared to Backblaze, my backup storage, I’m paying $ 11 for sync software that works and does iOS photos. The other $ 1 is storage and backup. Pretty clear win for software.

One example: Save every version for the past few days, every hour for the past month, every day for the past 3 months, every week until 6 months, every month for the past X years, etc. Will also need something to control software that goes really wild with new versions, or some specialized rule sets for software repos, video editing, etc. Ransomware & compliance escrow would also work great for this, you could have contracts that wont allow deletion after X months no matter what the other organization says to help prevent social engineering or account take over attacks.
