The fact that they write “permanent modern digital records” tells us that they know absolutely nothing about digital preservation
LTO-9 tapes are 18TB, cost under $100 each, and last for 30+ years making them the most efficient cold storage solution on the market, which every competent IT professional knows, but no im sure you can just dump all of that essential data in some shitty budget cloud storage service lmao

An amethyst sits in centre of a cruciform setting, with cloissonee garnet in small cells. The #jewellery show signs of much wear.
