More than half a million UniSuper fund members went a week with no access to their superannuation accounts after a “one-of-a-kind” Google Cloud “misconfiguration” led to the financial services provider’s private cloud account being deleted, Google and UniSuper have revealed.
Imagine this happens to some random personal account… It’d probably be gone for good.
There were several months with people complaining their data was getting deleted and Google just ignored the whole thing until it blew up on hacker news.
