Encryption toggle: Since encryption requires a passphrase it is hard to get rid of, and for cloud storage it is very nice to have. Include/exclude: I think Exclude is still relevant (include should default to all personal data), since I (and probably a lot of other users) download stuff from the Internet that are very temporary, it can be movies, software installers aso... on my Mac I have added and exclude rule for the download folder since that would just waste space on my backup-unit. How long to keep backups: Forever or as long as there are storage left. I like the TimeCapsule version with a nice default algorithm that tries to keep as much as possible as long as possible. How often to back up: Always by monitoring the files. just my view... //Snaggen
