Not excusing DO here but there’s also a lesson to be learned about backups: make sure they’re kept off site in case the whole site itself because compromised. Usually when we say this we mean in terms of a physical disaster (eg fire) but in this case it’s also in case of a logical disaster (account getting shit down).

So the lesson is don’t leave your backups with the same cloud provider that host your database. You should also pull local copies as well
