The 3-2-1 backup rule for research data:

3️⃣ Keep 3 copies of your data
2️⃣ Store them on 2 different media types
1️⃣ Keep 1 copy off-site

Hard drives fail. Laptops get stolen. Cloud services go down. Your data is worth more than your equipment. Take care of it and spend some thoughts how to manage it.

"Demnach fließt ein „versteckter Strom privatsphärenrelevanter Daten“ direkt in die Systeme des Tech-Konzerns und von dort auf Bildschirme von Datenarbeiter:innen." ... "ebenso zu sehen gewesen wie Bankkarten"
Eine ganz neue Dimension von Scam Optionen.

This is, why I hate it when I am forced to "share" the keys to my castles via the cloud of password-managers like 1Password. Most local (WiFi) sync suck, or simply are dysfunctional (yes, 1Password, looking at you!). You have to trust them to encrypt the vaults adequately, which in three cases has ben shown not to be safe at all. https://ethz.ch/de/news-und-veranstaltungen/eth-news/news/2026/02/passwortmanager-bieten-weniger-schutz-als-versprochen.html #1password #enpass #Bitwarden #lastpass #dashlane #itsecurity #datasafety #passwordmanager #unsafe

🏠 Homelab Backup Evolution! 🏠

Following the "3-2-1 is the minimum" rule, I've expanded my VPS container backup strategy:

✅ Hetzner Cloud (Borg) → Offsite long-term storage
✅ Synology NAS (rsync) → Local fast recovery

The new setup does nightly automated syncs of all /opt/containers/ data to my Synology - with deduplication and all the bells and whistles! 📦

Particularly clever: hardlinks for space-efficient snapshots and morning email reports. Now I know right with my coffee ☕ whether all backups ran cleanly.

Lesson learned: Cloud-only is good, but having a local NAS mirror for quick restores is pure gold! 💪

How do you solve this in your setups? Also multi-tier or everything to cloud?

Australia's strict data retention laws mean we have many honeypots for hackers. After years of hack after hack, with a raft of highly sensitive data exposed, this is what the govt do—Ban under 16s from social media, which is another way of mandating people share their ID with social media companies.

The eSafety Commissioner doesn't seem particularly concerned with data safety. Commissioner of Moral Panics might be more accurate.

If TikTok is a threat to the American people because it collects data, what is Equifax when it blasts the American people’s data out in a data breach?

At least the Chinese intelligence agencies have the good sense to secure their ill gotten data against randoms using it.
