from “don’t be evil” to stunts like this in basically no time flat. #capitalism!
How is Google getting rich off his free account?
No no. If a company isn’t spending more than it’s making, it’s 100% evil.
Wait, journalist, 233 terabyte? Just what in the fuck did his life’s work consist of?

It’s simply stupid to not compress to h265 before uploading it.
For people authoring original content who may end up having the only copy of a given piece of news-relevant data in their possession, using a lossy compression method to back it up sort of defeats the purpose. This isn’t stashing your old DVD collection, this is trying to back up privileged professional data.

I want to clarify that it supports lossless compression as well.
I have a problem with Amazon Drive going away for non-photos on December 31st.
For a while, they had unlimited storage and you could use a Linux API to access it – I stored 8TB of data.
Then they set a quota, but for those over quota it was read-only. Oh, and Linux access no longer works.
Now they’ve set a deadline to have everything off by December 31st, but the Windows app still doesn’t work (constantly crashing) and I see no way to get my files.
