All of the data I actually care about is stored on a NAS and backed up in triplicate. The only data actually on my PC are program files.

I can’t access my home server at all right now. I needed a distraction from all the bullshit in the world so I intentionally made it unstable so I would always have a puzzle to solve. I have a backup but I only use it when the puzzle breaks. That’s the rule I made for myself.

This distraction certainly delivers.

How are these people losing access to their MS accounts on their computers?

If they are still using windows, their privacy and data safety was never of importance to them, anyway.

Or just get the data back from the backups they made.
