Just keep your stuff copied locally

I have my stuff "in the cloud" via Apple's iCloud service. My home folder, documents, photos, etc.

Oh...all that shit is also backed up to an external hard drive too, just in case.

No, wait...two external hard drive.

Not that I'm paranoid.

My work crap is on Adobe cloud + an external.
Personal stuff is on iCloud + external.
Photos are Adobe + external.

The "cloud" is certainly convenient. You can access whatever you want, as long as 1) the cloud is "up" and 2) you have (fast) internet access.

If the cloud went down tomorrow, I'd lose nothing other than an alternative backup scheme.

[jon-nyc]

Me too.

I take it for granted after following the set up. I like my music, my podcasts, my movies and shows from the cloud too. Cloud is always the easiest and best way to get at it.

Yeah, but if the cloud goes away tomorrow, can you keep your family warm, fed and safe?

Noticed you never said how you could do it...

I don't have any data I couldn't easily live without.

Why bother with backups? We all die soon anyway.

Are you kidding me?? All my family and friends will be fighting over access and biographers will be screaming over access and Hollywood screenwriters will want all that content.

Proof of my existence is how I have been spending my whole life! Others may not be so interested now but just wait until I die. Boy will they be sorry, the least I can do is forgive them by having my stuff available.
