Say we have 20 people all involved in the same fantasy football league. Each has data backed up for the entire league making, they think, the data guaranteed to be safe from loss.
But one Monday as they go to look at their standings after a particularly interesting Sunday, and all of them find that their hard drives have crashed and they cant access any of the data.
One of the players, Steve is a well known hacker who could have pulled some shenanigans, perhaps, but he insists that he did nothing to cause the failure as his team was victorious. Another player, Doug, had a disastrous weekend, but he does not have the skill to cause anything like this. Ted says that Doug hired Steve to crash the hard drives. Bob says that sometimes shit happens, maybe all twenty crashed simultaneously.
Who is most likely right?
