My guess is there are some political sensitive photos, videos etc from Democrat Party candidates that were “lost” during this episode.

This (among other good reasons) is why you do not trust online storage for important data.

Myspace turned into a thug breeding ground 20 years ago. Facebook only exists because middle agers like me are involuntarily stuck because their parents will not communicate in any other way. Us GenXrs despise it and I am sure the young kids are long gone.

MySpace music pages haven’t worked for me for the last 10 years!!! Any time I go to one and click the play button, nothing happens.
I’ve never seen a website rise to high and fall so hard as MySpace. Hell, even ebay is still mildly usable.

What’s that old saying about backing up?

If you are backing up to take a selfie by the Grand Canyon, oops.

Even more bizarre is that this site still exists.... https://www.aol.com/
It's owned by Verizon now. A couple of years ago Verizon shut down their email services and transitioned those customers over to AOL.

"Never attribute to malice what can be explained by stupidity."
Maybe, but in this case, I smell malice. Specifically, a really big pay-off. Like something in those archives was deeply embarrassing to one of the Democrat presidential hopefuls.

This is the reason I never store any files on a web site.

I didn’t know MySpace still existed.Actually, they rebranded themselves as a site where bands could showcase their music.
So, they've now f**ked up the last remaining thing they were good for.
