Gen Z falls for online scams more than their boomer grandparents do. The generation that grew up with the internet isn’t invulnerable to becoming the victim of online hackers and scammers.

  • How I left Bank of America:

    My previous paycheck had $350 in overdraft fees that came out of my current check. Because I had automatic deposit for my paychecks they allowed for borrowing against your next paycheck.

    I borrowed $500 to cover the $350 in fees they stole from me plus a $150 service as compensation for my pain and suffering, withdrew all my money, cancelled automatic deposit, and walked away.

    I'm sure they sent it to collections, but looking back on it 20 years later: still worth any damage to my credit rating.

  • I know of several very large companies that still use tape backups. Granted they're not like the cassette tapes we used back in the 20th century, but it is still the same tech.

    Those tape libraries are more akin to zip/jaz drives.

  • You just happened to get a reply from a former backup engineer who has had to explain this concept to customers.

    Something else in the backup world that gets regularly misused: backups != disaster ecovery.

    Disaster recovery is a whole plan of action. Backups can be a part of DR, yes, but I have had way too many companies consider their backups as the totality of their DR.

  • Technically speaking, RAID is redundancy not backup. A proper backup is an archived copy of the data stored not stored in the same logical infrastructure as the primary data.

    With a RAID you can swap in a new drive if one (or more, depending on your RAID#) drive in your RAID array dies. If enough of your redundancy in a RAID fails, you will lose data.

    With a proper backup you can restore the entirety of the RAID array even if the original data has been physically destroyed.
