And when you do show ID, to buy booze for example, it’s checked and immediate forgotten by a human. Computers don’t forget, and any attempts to make companies do so (GDPR) are met with massive pushback from the players in the industry I hav

So I have a backup tape store that I keep offsite in the same town. Then a nuke hits. You’ve always got a potential for a single event to knock out your backup system, the question is what level of events are you happy with. My company is s
