An Apple fan who has spent “nearly 30 years as a loyal customer” says they’ve been “permanently” locked out of their Apple Account due to what might be the overzealous actions of Apple’s automated anti-fraud system. It’s left them locked out of “20 years of digital life,” and it all started with the seemingly straightforward purchase of an Apple gift card.

Friendly advice: never put your entire life in the hands of a corporation! Also, the migration from local storage to the “cloud” was never a good thing for us, and the small gain in convenience wasn’t worth it, but most people don’t seem to realize that.

Cloud storage allows normal people to better realize a proper 3-2-1 backup strategy though, since it facilitates offsite storage. That being said, my very important stuff is backed up to more than one cloud provider, just in case.

Which is the reason for the local backup on my NAS - which is also in a RAID 5 configuration and can survive one drive failure with no loss of data, as well as the copies stored on the original devices. There would need to be a series of unfortunate events for me to lose everything.
