"You've already acknowledged your data is safe against Evernote's demise because you have your own back-ups.\n \n\n\n\tUnless this was some new concept to you that you only became aware of the possibility of Evernote failing as a company because *I* informed you of it, your backups were made prepping for that and all other eventualities which you acknowledge are within the realm of realistically feasible problems.\n \n\n\n\tDo tell, you roof, is it Saran Wrap? How about a thin piece of glass?\n \n\n\n\tNo?\n \n\n\n\tDo you, like most people have a roof that you can walk on? Probably. \n \n\n\n\tWe build our homes for the purpose of protecting us from all realistically probable harm--including rain, snow, lightning, the occasional tree branch, etc, etc... \n \n\n\n\tYou have been reduced to actually arguing that you would NEVER even consider protecting your data against anything major, because it is unlikely to happen. You are actually arguing that you would never even consider insuring your assets from acts of god of terrorist attack. Well, you know who DOES consider such eventualities? Your insurance company that, in all likelihood, specifically excluded acts of god and terrorist attacks from your base insurance policy, and probably wanted an increased premium to do so!\n \n\n\n\tCome on--this is what you have reduced yourself to--trying to come up with a specific very unlikely event and arguing that because you have never contemplated that event, you are not backing up your data for disaster preparedness. Well, whether you intend to do so or not, the act os properly backing up your data, and keeping copies in separate locations, is disaster preparedness.\n \n\n\n\tWhen you make a copy of your data, do you take that copy and leave it sitting on top of the computer?\n \n\n\n\tNo?\n \n\n\n\tYou move it to a separate location? Don't want to have a fire consume your HD and your back-up media, do ya?\n \n\n\n\tPsst... a fire is technically a disaster when it wasn't planned and it consumed something you didn't want it to consume. Might only be a small disaster if it is a small fire, but it is still a disaster.\n \n\n\n\tSo, you can continue to argue you are not doing disaster preparedness, but you are going to have to make yourself look more and more foolish--or dishonest--by arguing the long list of things you are specifically not protecting against.\n \n\n\n\tAlso, it is a good thing you are not putting up your roof to guard against meteorites--they come THROUGH roofs. Chunks of rock sturdy enough to survive entry into our atmosphere travelling 87m/sec* tend to do that. \n \n\n\n\thttps://www.wired.co.uk/article/meteorite-uruguay-break-house-how-rare\n \n\n\n\t \n \n\n\n\t \n \n\n\n\t*194.61 MPH -- And since you mentioned the Ann Hodges strike, you should already have known they travel fast enough to shred virtually any roof if they are much larger than a marble, since it went through her roof and THEN struck her.   Hint: If you decide to argue you don't put up drywall to stop .50 bullets, I will applaud that decision--they have a nasty habit going through several inches of wood. \n \n\n\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\n\n\n\n\t*\n\n"
