Re: AWS now liable?
This a thousand times but I cant believe how many people do not realise this in the real world.
It seems that there is a common belief that the Cloud is more safe, instead of the less safe it really is. I think that people think the Cloud acts more like BitTorrent or IPFS and if one copy disappears that is OK because there are other copies. Even technical people seem to act like they believe this.
Of course, the name "Cloud" doesn't help - it suggests that the servers are tiny, equivalent and almost irrelevant, instead of the reality which is that your data is smeared out and if any one of them fails your data is irretrievable. It should have been called "The Smear" instead.
