I'll take aaron.reddit.com. :-) (Ran across a backup of paul in my apartment the other day... Memories.)

  You keep entire backups of Reddit servers in your apartment? Is anything sensitive on the backups?

    1. My apartment was Reddit HQ before we got bought. Where else would we have put the backups? 2. As best I can recall, the only thing on the web nodes was a source code checkout. I don't think that's particularly sensitive. 3. As ig1 notes, back then we had unencrypted passwords in the database and database copies on our machines, which were our personal laptops, so a spare drive in the apartment was the least of our problems.

      That sounds like "no" and "no". Thanks for answering!
