Mat Honan: How I Resurrected My Digital Life After an Epic Hacking

http://j.mp/Ntz5oR  (Wired)

  "When my data died, it was the cloud that killed it. The triggers
   hackers used to break into my accounts and delete my files were all
   cloud-based services - iCloud, Google, and Amazon. Some pundits have
   latched onto this detail to indict our era of cloud computing. Yet
   just as the cloud enabled my disaster, so too was it my salvation.
   Yes, you can die by the cloud. But you can live by it too. Here's how
   I regained my digital life after it was taken away from me."
