Data Hoarder

We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

For those hoarding images online, do you have any plans to print them out? (alien.top)

If so, how would you go about it?

Most people on here are interested in digitizing photos by scanning them, but what about the other way around? Is paper a more reliable way to store images than the cloud/drives? Or do you have too many images/photos?
