The Tech Industry's (Kinda Crazy) Data Storage Problem
Channel: Daniel Rosehill
Date: 2022-05-17

Despite the mind-boggling advances that have been made in recent years in squeezing progressively larger amounts of data into progressively tinier storage media, for the most part, humanity still hasn't developed any long term storage solution that has been conclusively and objectively been proven to be suitable for indefinite cold/archival storage. While offsite/cloud duplication *does* provide a solution, it also means relying upon third providers to safeguard all of one's data. Which is ... kind of wild, no?
