Headlines are clickbait. Literally the first line in the article. What more can they do than send an email?

    The title is accurate.

    You just failed to read the article part the first ten words.

    However, roughly six months ago, Backblaze enacted a silent change that made its backup app stop uploading local data synced to "OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox, Box, iDrive, and others."
