the default does not need to be spelled out. that's why it's called the default.Eric StevensEric Stevensnospam
You really have difficulty in expressing what you mean. You previously wrote "a cloud outage might be annoying, but the data won't be lost" when you really meant a cloud outage might be annoying, but the data won't be lost as it should be stored in a copy else where.
there is no need to say that since the default is for a copy of the data in the cloud.
Then you should have said it was for the default case. Otherwise it's a generalisation which isn't always correct.
no, because a phone is often backed up to the cloud without the user needing to do much of anything.nospamEric Stevens
not only that, but one of the key advantages of the cloud multiple devices having access, so it's probably in many places. dropbox is a good example.
now ask yourself how many people have only one copy of their data on a hard drive. the answer is a lot. *they* are the ones who are going to lose data.
Ditto with people and laptops and phones.
it means that the device can have all buttons and switches removed and the data will be there and readable.Eric StevensNow you say smartphones are "*more* secure since there are no moving parts to fail" when you really meant smartphones are *more* secure since there are no moving parts to fail except buttons and switches which do not store data.nospam
data storage is either on a hard drive or flash memory, not buttons and switches.
So?
because it's obvious.nospamEric Stevens
when someone says no moving parts with regards to data storage, they mean no spinning disk.
Oh, do they? Is that what you meant? Then why didn't you say so?
and correct.nospamEric Stevens
only an idiot would bring up switches. they do move but that makes no difference to the data. even if every button and switch was broken, the data is unaffected.Eric Stevensnospam
Are you really saying that it is not possible for the failure of a button or switch to cause the loss of data? You will have to be very brave to say that: just because you don't know or can't think of an example doesn't mean it can't happen.
yes.
data is not stored in a button or switch.
Gee - that's simplistic thinking.
