That’s when accounts are closed or payments missed, I think in this case they just deleted the sub itself which just bypassed everything for instant deletion.
- Comment on “Unprecedented” Google Cloud event wipes out customer account and its backups 8 months ago:
Everything is tied to the subscriptions, they deleted the sub and that automatically deleted all backups.

Why can’t we go back to meeting people on BBS and forums. Shit I met my partner in 2009 on a forum. It was organic and real, no apps, no algorithms just good ol’ fashion php with a dash of flame war.

- Comment on Roku explores taking over HDMI feeds with ads 9 months ago:
The ability to download and use YouTube music with my screen off and the lack of ads on videos I watch on YouTube all the while still supporting the creators.
I think the $25 a month is worth it when I don’t gotta worry about anything. Plus split that over 7 people and it’s cheaper than Spotify.
- Comment on Roku explores taking over HDMI feeds with ads 9 months ago:
Slowly but surely, we dropped Amazon, Netflix, and a few other services so far. My goal once I have free time is to setup a plex server so my parents can partake aswell.
Probably the only thing that won’t get cancelled is YouTube as it provides to many benfits even as the cost goes up when split across 3 households

- Comment on Wi-Fi jamming to knock out cameras suspected in nine Minnesota burglaries -- smart security systems vulnerable as tech becomes cheaper and easier to acquire 11 months ago:
More like throw it in the trash when gooogle decides it’s obsolete and bricks it for “security concerns”
- Comment on Wi-Fi jamming to knock out cameras suspected in nine Minnesota burglaries -- smart security systems vulnerable as tech becomes cheaper and easier to acquire 11 months ago:
You know digital can be wired right? And analog doesnt mean secure, you can listen in and disable analog signals just as easy as digital ones.
These people are just using signal jammers you can buy on AliExpress. They can jam analog and digital it’s just about what frequencies it blocks. However using them in North America is illegal.
