- Google Cloud accidentally deleted UniSuper’s account and backups, causing a major data loss and downtime for the company.
- UniSuper was able to recover data from backups with a different provider after the incident.
- The incident highlighted the importance of having safeguards in place for cloud service providers to prevent such catastrophic events from occurring.

I just found the phasing to be kind of funny
“rapid unscheduled disassembly” 🙄
