Mozy Blog
A little while ago I posted on my MySpace blog about Mozy, a cool little online backup company. I’ve been quite impressed by their service so far.
Well, the people who work there started a blog. The posts so far are funny, a tad sarcastic, and even informative.
My favorite part so far has been the little jabs at the government in a post about encryption:
We’re a little unique here in that we give our users the option to provide their own private key (a passphrase, a picture, a music file –whatever) which is hashed to generate a 448-bit key for encryption.This key is stored on their PC, and we don’t have access to it – it’stored on the PC and is never transferred to our servers – which means that we can confidently protect data from both kid sisters and government agencies.
When debating which aluminum foil brand to wrap their hard disks in they recognize the threat posed by the government and cooperating corporations:
This is a tough one. On the one hand, you’ve got Reynolds – which is an old standby. On the other hand, perhaps it’s safer to use a more generic brand, like from Target. Reynolds is made in Virginia, which is home to all sorts of government agencies, and who knows how they’ve meddled with the manufacturing process of this aluminum foil. But the Target brand is manufactured in Minneapolis, which was the home of the Cray supercomputer, and everyone knows they were in cahoots with the government, specifically the NSA.
I hope they continue in this vein. I will love it.
The easycgi has custom made a considerably flexible cheap web hosting proposal which allows for comprehensive flexibility. This supports their ability to offer innovative features in dedicated servers and avant-garde technology upon availability. Their control panel makes the client to manage each and every feature of their dsl account at any time, from any location. They also offer superb web design services.

You should also check out Data Deposit Box for online data backup. It’s inexpensive and very easy to use. It takes about 2 minutes to install the online backup agent. Once installed it’s fully automatic with nothing to remember and no procedures to follow. You can access your online data storage easily with a web browser.

I have been interested in the Mozy program and have emailed them several times as well as called. No response. Makes me leary of them. While Carbonite reponds quickly I’ve read bad things about the carbonite service in other blogs.
Folks say Mozy has great support but I can’t get them to answer an email?
Whats up with that?
