I understand that perfectly well. It unfortunately doesn’t change the fact that he is distorting the facts.

I fully get that point, and it would be pretty neat if we managed to pull that through from a legislative standpoint. I just wish he would stick to the facts more. Essentially making the argument you make in your last sentence.

I watched the first 10-15 minutes of this and have to say, while I agree with him on principle, he’s either misinformed or exaggerating the anti-circumvention regulation. There are a number of exemptions in anti-circumvention laws in the US for personal use. How far this goes was made clear in court, Apple took the creators of an iOS jailbreak to court and lost, making it clear that jailbreaking is not illegal, even though it clearly circumvents the “protection” system in place. Similar applies to circumventing DRM for backup copies of media, for instance.

Of course, I would rather see no anti-circumvention legislation whatsoever, but the way he misportrays the situation makes me question his credibility.

Debian has some instructions here, maybe it can be used for other platforms as well.

Sync is not backup

Thank you. Now can you please explain this to my IT department that thinks force syncing everything on our computers to OneDrive is a solution to our lack of backups?
