PBS's situation is entirely PBS fault. If you've got 50TB of data to backup it's either worth $300 to $400 a month to you to do it properly with a reputable vendor along with on-site storage, or ... just accept you'll lose it.

It was such a tremendously silly decision I almost wonder if it wasn't a politically motivated decision. Maybe the provider that went under had some relative DEI points versus Backblaze or AWS. Just bizarre.

But I wouldn't extrapolate anything out from their situation.
