For the power that we do use, we purchase carbon offsets (already included in the cost of the storage), so Diomede Storage has a zero carbon footprint.

Without a doubt, it will include a disclaimer that the company IS NOT LIABLE for any lost data. How "cheap" is cheap, when you are unable to retrieve your data? If the company uses words like "SAFE" and "SECURE" in reference to your data, then surely they should be held legally responsible for that data. Iverson has left the wreckage/remnants of THREE similar companies behind him...while keeping customer fees that should rightfully have been returned. Doubtless there are many, many old customers out there who feel that it is their duty to inform the rest of the public of this man's unethical business practices. Ditto for Harr, Hood, and the rest.

Although the carbon credit system is a little laughable to a resource management economist in most real world applications, I do not fault that on the firm and it's more sensible than trying to market the fact you and your firm planted some trees. There is no question that the majority of stored data in cloud format probably doesn't need anywhere near instant access.

Let's see if they will be able to do it because on today's market it's very hard to change some ideas (e.g. IPv4 vs. IPv6) and there will be customers that prefer to have their HDD running for 24x7 and have permanent access to their files.
