Naturally, it has the word “money” in the title so the freetards will instantly assume it’s regarding the long-dead Microsoft Money service (they are living in 1998 after all).
It turns out Google may have accidentally erased 150,000 GMail accounts. Oh well, at least that’s not as many as Hotmail has nuked…oh wait, that’s still zero.
While this is pretty clear that Google didn’t do this maliciously (not like Microsoft would have, amiright, freetards!?), it still shows they’re not infallible, and worse still, they don’t seem to have backups! (Well, maybe for 1/3rd of the accounts deleted)

“If, ultimately, Google does not make this right in a timely way and I lose the main record of the last 7 years of my life …”
Photographs are so much 1970, amirite?
Now why would Microsoft wipe out Hotmail accounts? That last sentence is far from reality.

Microsoft did have serveral (iirc only 2 though) smaller outages during the last 6 months but these were also recovered rather quickly (= the next day).

What I don’t get is that Google offers you (I’ve just checked my gmail account) 7.5 Gig of space, and they somehow can’t cope with reserving, say, 2.5 Gig of this for back-up. It’s the sheer professional incompetence that shines out here, isn’t it?
