Very interesting - thank you. Ransomware scares me. I spent some time recently researching how I might get yourself some protection from an attack by keeping file copies in a secure location. The conclusion was depressing - it seems there's no such thing as a secure location if it's linked permanently to your machine in some way. I started with the idea that dropbox et al might be the answer, but soon gave up. I won't bore you with the details, but each month now I get an email reminding me that a scheduled dump is going to run in the wee small hours and that I need to connect my remote hard drive before it starts and disconnect same when it's finished. Is this 2022 or what?
