While I agree that this bug is severe, losing person's most important data is the fault of this person itself. It is irresponsible beyond imagination to keep all such important things just in one place. There are loads of things that could happen to that drive beyond formatting it by mistake; most of all, drives just brake from time to time. Keeping two copies is an absolute minimum and I personally tend to keep my really most important data at least in 3 places, one of which is not the drive I keep at home.
It amazes me that so many people are still making this very same huge mistake. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/443330 Title: USB Creator does not warn or ask user to confirm before formatting disks To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-creator/+bug/443330/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
