Hypothetically: -Government leader says they're nuking data -Mad rush to back up data through other means -Government leader declares they've 'transferred the cost of maintaining data out of government, thus making for a smaller, more efficient, government'

I hate everything about this.

Kind of like switching to supporting Russia so your allies think you're no longer a reliable partner and start beefing up their own militaries.
