Strongly opposed to this capability. This can so easily be used against the user in so many ways.

That 22% figure is a misreading of the data, and is way to low. Without the subsample sizes it's difficult to arrive at a precise number, but the actual number is close to 60% more likely.

A nice move, especially on their pricing decision. Although I have to say that, having backed up from Europe to US Backblaze servers for close to five years now, their cross-Atlantic speeds are already very decent. Especially when compared to the transfer rates I used to get with CrashPlan, which I also used for several of these years.

Now if only they would finally get around to fixing those dreadful restore procedures of theirs, which entirely break the principle of end-to-end encryption by requiring you to hand over your private keys to *them*, for decrypting on *their* serves before data is returned to you. They talk big about their experience in security and data protection, yet their engineers seem to lack understanding of even the most fundamental concepts.
