Backblaze silently redefines 'unlimited' and users discover it's not backing up Dropbox and OneDrive — as firm leans heavier into AI storage services, changes could signal shift away from home backups

Backblaze has quietly updated its Terms of Service, indicating potential throttling or termination for users exceeding unspecified usage patterns. The service no longer backs up data synced with cloud storage providers like Dropbox and OneDrive. These changes coincide with Backblaze's increased focus on AI storage services, hinting at a shift away from home backups. Users have reported data loss due to these alterations, highlighting the importance of distinguishing between file sync and backup services. The company's emphasis on AI storage and declining interest in home backups may lead to the discontinuation of its home backup service in the future.
