I am writing to express my disagreement with your decision to stop advertising on the Rush Limbaugh show for comments he made last week. It is my understanding that he has apologized for his comments and to Ms. Fluke. Your decision to pull your advertising in such an abrupt manner was both unnecessary and provocative. I believe you overreacted and as such I cannot in good faith show my support for your biased company and your irrational decisions. I note that Carbonite still advertises on the Ed Schultz program even after Mr. Schultz called Laura Ingraham a "slut". Because of your extreme, and hypocritical, views on civil public discourse, I will not be renewing my two Carbonite subscriptions effective immediately and I will recommend all of my friends and family do the same. I hope you reconsider your decision to participate in this left-wing radical sponsored boycott of Rush Limbaugh. Just remember, you aren't the only online backup company around.
Sincerely, Mike Novak
Good for you, Mike.
Good letter...My hubby said that their stock has gone down also........so maybe they acted a little to fast. One can hope
Good letter... stuck those fools where they hide their gold!
Thanks, Mike.
I will drop Carbonite as well. I am switching to a competitor, BackBlaze.
Excellent!
Do they have an email contact account? All I could find was snail mail.
Good letter. I think this will have more impact if everyone on FR who reads this MAKES the time to either call, email or letter write. I know I’m doing my share and am still not done.
I’m not with Carbonite and I will never subscribe to Carbonite as long as they support barak HUSSEIN (MUSLIM HUSSEIN ‘KILL ALL INFEDELS’) obama, a name from a drunk driver womanizer that died in a drunk driving wreck and I wish would have died in .......
I’m a procrastinator, Carbonite. You just made it easier for me. You can look forward to not getting my company’s five accounts.
Excellent!!!
Try www.crashplan.com. it has a really free option. It would be cool if they go up in users almost as proportionally as carbonite goes down.
Vivala liberty! Vivala freedom from tyranny! Vivala Rush!
They aren’t the only online backup and they aren’t the best. One review I read put them at number 9 on a list of 10.
Nicely done. I uninstalled Carbonite from my computer this morning and cheerfully filled out the “why-are-you-cancelling” survey, calling them out on the Rush Limbaugh ad drop.
I then logged into my account on Carbonite.com to make sure it didn’t automatically renew in June.
Looking for a new online backup service now.

I cancelled my subscription to Carbonite yesterday and sent them a similar email.
re: I note that Carbonite still advertises on the Ed Schultz program even after Mr. Schultz called Laura Ingraham a “slut”.
I did not know that. Thanks for the info.
I just went to their contact page from within the application’s support section. You might have to have an active subscription to get to that section. FWIW.
