   I will not cry for proprietary fags that can't even burn backups on optical discs.

     You can start offing yourself if you want to complain about that.
     
     People storing online only, have no control over the data they put there, that's my point.
     
     See:
     Cloud/server storage:
     -Made by Corpos only
     -Is a service no a product.
     -Accessible to the average joe.
     -Is a monthly subscription.
     -No warranty to not loose the data.
     -Lifetime is as long as your subscription.
     -No warranty to not have the data stolen.
     -No recovery.
     -200Kg of CO2 for each 100GB of stored data per year.
     
     SSDs
     -Made by Corpos only
     -Is a product, not a service.
     -Accessible to the average joe.
     -Pay once
     -Lifetime is unknown but based on warranty it's between 1 to 5 years.
     -No proper tools for diagnosis.
     -5 main points of failures due to NAND/physics
     -No proper tools for recovery as manufacturers use various anti copy/reverse engineering methods to stop the stealing of trade secrets
     -You're responsible for dataloss
     -You're responsible for data being stolen
     -32Kg of CO2.
     
     
     HDDs
     -Made by Corpos only
     -Is a product, not a service.
     -Accessible to the average joe.
     -Pay once
     -Lifetime is 6000 hours for low and average end and 30000 hours for high end.
     -3 main points of failure, 2 electric motors and 1 magnetic head.
     -Recovery possible in clean environment.
     -You're responsible for dataloss
     -You're responsible for data being stolen

     Freecels are just seething that when you bring a foid over and she sees your Apple products, she is reassured that you are a discerning man of means. If a foid were to ever lay eyes upon their crusty thinkpads running Arch, she'd immediately find the first excuse to remove herself from the den of an obvious sex criminal.

     @mangeurdenuage @Hoss @sapphire Remember, you can lose data, but you can't loose data, unless you've filled up a cannon full of HDD's and loose the cannon.
     
     The main failure case of HDDs and SSDs is the controller software corrupting itself (but why would manufacturer's bother to fix that, as that kills the drive eventually, even if is is physically fine, or if the NAND has had little reads and writes and you have to buy a new one).
     
     Data cannot be stolen - it can only be unauthorizely accessed, copied and/or deleted.
     
     Trade secrets cannot be stolen - those can only be unauthorizely published.
     
     If you store a copy of a program in a product and then sell the product, that program is not secret anymore, therefore that program cannot be a trade secret.
     
     The whole idea of obfuscating everything is to screw the customer over and stop them from developing GNU/SDD control software - read methods, wear leveling techniques, error checking codes and S.M.A.R.T are all things that is public information.
     
     You can in fact desolder the NAND chips from a SSD with failed software and read off the data with the protocol - the issue is working out what error checking method was used and re-implementing that and then when you've uncorrupted all the blocks, working out which order the blocks go in, so you can assemble the blocks back into a copy of the filesystem.
