I think the company was scamming to get insurance money. There's no way a business built on a sole product of proprietary code is going to leave themselves so vulnerable.

And if they did, I have no sympathy. Even my 13 year old son knows to make backups of his homework onto a USB drive or floppy!

C'mon.
