The german hosted blogging-service blogg.de accidentally deleted all comments from user weblogs last Friday. This worst case scenario occured when the administrators tried to fight down comment spam platform-wide. And due to corrupt backup files, all previously saved database dumps from mid-August to December 5th are useless. [#]

My 2 cents:

  1. Shouldn’t large user-content-driven sites have local test-environments?
  2. Shouldn’t important backups always be checksummed?

Of course this will never happen here, thanks to WordPress Database Backup.
