Second paragraph of the article: “My colleague Vjeran just lost 3TB of video”.
It’s not just the title, the entire article is about data loss. To be honest what really bothers me about the article is the whole thing points fingers at WD for making a mistake, while conveniently ignoring that fact that a Verge employee also made a mistake and I’d argue a worse one by failing to backup their data.
If the article was about “it’s annoying to have to wait for a replacement drive to be sent” then I’d be right on board. But that’s not what the article is about.
No… the company trying to hide the fact that their product is defective is the point here. Lost data or not, people are paying for a product that’s defective. End of story.
