Help, I'm bad at preserving media, should I store the PBS archives on magnetic tapes that will last like 30 years before they need to be recopied, or do I upload everything to a fly by night tech firm for probably 10x the cost?

They had generational majorities and the public support and mandate to actually save the UK from itself, but the entire leadership were handpicked neoliberal ghouls who were only there to drive out the left from every level of the party, so now the UK is seeing a collapse into fascism as everyone just waits out the clock until the next election.
It's like seeing a speed run of the Obama years.
It's basically impossible to go out and relax or have any kind of good time when you know you're probably being filmed from 20 different angles throughout the night, and the cost of any kind of faux pas is that you might get video uploaded to make you a laughing-stock.... and that was before the millions of AI surveillance cameras that have like a ~2% chance to hallucinate imaginary crimes and file automatic police reports went up.
But yeah, everything is also really fucking expensive now.
