it's definitely an interesting thought. whole swaths of digital storage could be wiped out with a significant solar flare or some similar technology. most digital storage requires some sort of power source (ie. a small battery) in order to hold data. if "the power went out and never came back on", it would be like a ticking clock to data oblivion.

but data is so much more distributed and duplicated now. and i'm sure fuckerberg has a few pb stored on his hawaiian apocalypse resort.

wait. sorry - this isn't related - but it just occurred to me. maybe i'm just slow. but zuck is building his survival bunker in hawaii. hawaii? like, the place that's ALL volcanoes? that seems really dumb. i must be missing something. that must be an interesting engineering project.
