Risks of hosting in someone else's #cloud:

This was an accident.
There could come a day where it isn't.
I don't know who needs to hear this, but if you are storing the backups in the same location as the originals, you should probably think about that for a moment.
Always seemed to me that it defeats the purpose of self-hosting if you're doing it on AWS or something. I think a lot of people are just engineers that utilize cloud infrastructure and are just building on the tools they know.
