Not directly related to this case as the owner probably doesn’t know the tape could be backed up in digital format but your comment made me think about the data hoarder scene and how weird it is that these people jealously keep digital content that could easily be shared infinitely…
Data hoarders (generally) don’t keep stuff to not share it, they keep it because shit disappears from the Internet all the time. Videos get removed from YouTube, websites go down, etc.
A large overarching idealogy of ‘data hoarding’ is self responsibility of archiving the internet.
