Quoth the Wikipedia

  "In August 2022, Code42 announced that it had sold the CrashPlan
  side of its business to New York-based private equity firm Mill
  Point Capital to focus exclusively on the cybersecurity market.
  Mill Point Capital purchased CrashPlan for $250 million" [1]

I'd steer clear of anything run by a private equity. Much more so by
something where you'll realize too late it's become a hollow hull
(security, backups, etc). My hunch is they're just stripping assets,
as private equities do.

But, of course, in this world, everyone takes their risks :-)

Cheers
