CMDR_Horn comments on PBS loses 50TB of data; 70 years of TV history after cloud vendor defunct

Throwing shade at PBS for not adhering to expensive but best practice 3-2-1 rule is Dumb. PBS doesn't have the money to do things right.

I hope they're able to get their data back.

In most cases customers are relying on their cloud vendor to do all of this and follow best practices.

Without PBS’s contract we don’t know what was promised or stipulated

Nine PBS found an extra $30 million to refurb their headquarters this year. They could have afforded a NAS.

PBS headquarters is not located in Missouri, where the affected station is.
