They reel you in with cheap offer then they wack up the price
I initially signed up to the offer of 2TB of data storage for around $79.00 a year. I felt the price was reasonnable and competitibve compared to other providers. And they also offered a script that can backup linux OS'es. After the 12 months they wanted more than $700 for the renewal. I respectfully declined and cancelled the "offer". I find this to be quite cheeky, as they entice you with attractive costs, you use the service and they prey on the fact that you have 2TB of data that took days or even weeks to upload trying to bank on this fact and that you may well carry on. Sorry guys, I find this really really bad business, but hey, why not? just leave me out! Apart from that the service is good, Although I found a better one: get 2 6TB hard drive, one on the machine, one in a external enclosure, backup on the internal one and mirror it on the external every now and then, this way even if your machine gets "accidentally" damaged or "encrypted" there is a recourse, and it is usually way faster and more reliable than ANY "stupid cloud snooped by US gov service" nuf said!
