I mean… at the risk of misinterpreting sarcasm—

Except for the backup strategy said consumers apply to their data themselves, right?

If I use a service called “it is stored in a datacenter in Virginia” then I will not be surprised when the meteor that hits Virginia destroys my data. For that reason I might also store copies of important things using the “it is stored in a datacenter in Oregon” service or something.



You might expect backups in case of fire, though. Even if data is not fully up to date.
