Backup your files with CrashPlan! Except this file type. No, not that one either. Try again...

This isn't a change?

Crashplan has always filtered on file extensions like this. I've been using it for over a decade. This isn't anything new? Maybe they hid it better in the past, but now the true nature comes out on some level of setup.

One thing they do well is continuous backup, changed files get backed up quickly, rather than on a snapshot schedule like most everybody else.

OOTH, its hard to believe they'll be in business with how they are turning away their core users. They want to sell to businesses, but won't support servers?

They want to turn into a security monitor DLP solution, but I don't know of anybody that wants a DLP unless its a compliance box to check.
