Natasha from Backblaze here. Just wanted to let you know that we do backup iCloud data, as long as the files are stored locally on your device (not just in iCloud as “optimize storage” / cloud-only files).

If iCloud is set to keep full copies on disk, Backblaze will treat those like normal files and back them up.

More details here: https://www.backblaze.com/computer-backup/docs/en/back-up-ic...

Happy to answer any questions if anything’s unclear.

At the top of this page:

>NOTE: >iCloud's most recent update prevents Backblaze from backing up files that iCloud synced. >To back up these files, download them to another local location where Backblaze can read them.

So which is it?

It's baffling that they did this little PR blitz across HN and Reddit and then didn't reply to any of the questions.

It’s not baffling. It’s time to get off of backblaze.
