Dropbox, Google Drive, and OneDrive keep your files in sync — which is exactly why none of them is a backup. The real difference between sync and backup, why ransomware exploits it, and what actually keeps your files safe.
Every "best cloud storage" guide ranks free space, price, and security — and skips the number that actually traps you: switching. Here's why lock-in is the real metric, and how to leave any cloud cheaply.
