Costco, Sams, Walgreens photo service hacked...
I didn't know if this was already discussed, but just wanted to encourge backing up photo's in multiple places. I used to only use Costco but recently also use Dropbox and a new external. I have had two externals fail a Western Digital and a Seagate, so they are not foolproof either. I once read on the National Archives site that an only protected photo is a printed one due to the changing technology. All backups need to be redone every few years to keep up with the current technology. Today's world is so full of these situations. I am exhausted by taking precautions.
