Because it still looks sane compared to the North.

Have you heard about the South Korea data center fire that basically shut down their government?
828TB of data has probably been lost for good because they weren't backing it up.
G-Drive, which stands for Government Drive and is not a Google product, was used by government staff to keep documents and other files. Each worker was allocated 30GB of space.
According to a report from The Chosun, the drive was one of 96 systems completely destroyed in the fire, and there is no backup.
“The G-Drive couldn’t have a backup system due to its large capacity,” an unnamed official told The Chosun. “The remaining 95 systems have backup data in online or offline forms.”
Well, first of all, why are you giving each person 30GB of storage space? People are hoarders. Stop encouraging it.
Second, backups are absolutely possible, and even if you want to keep claiming they aren't, read my first point again.

Yes, my favorite was all the news reports calling it "a failed drive." Like, where the fuck we getting 1000TB drives from?
I just... wow. How the fuck do you do that?
