At this point I think there is literally nothing about Equifax incompetence that would surprise me. I mean nothing.
They could reveal tomorrow that their data center fire protection protocols mandate the use of printed backups, feeding them to the flames with hopes the god of data destruction would be appeased and leave their servers alone. I would not be surprised. Nor would I be surprised if the paper backups were only available as printouts on toilet paper, 1000 miles away, in the CEO's office.
No, my reaction would be, "sounds about right for them, though I guess it's +1 point for effort on keeping any backups at all"
