i backup using arq on macos catalina. on two macs, i need maybe 3-4tb max. google seems to be $100/mo for 20tb (big jump from $100/yr for 2tb). backblaze b2 looks more like $20/mo for 4tb ($0.005/gb/mo). anyone else done a similar analysis?

Just out of curiosity, do you folks encrypt the data prior to upload to the cloud (especially when uploading to folks like aws/google/ms/(facebook))? Was wondering if these folks provide encryption of stored data - quick google search suggests that google does not. adam
