If anything, I'd say this is a sign not to work with CrystalTech.

After a mistake like this, it may be a sign that they will never mess up again.

I disagree - it's a sign that they will never mess up their VM backup system again.

It's also a sign that they lack experience and competence. So while your odds of suffering this problem are significantly lower, your odds of the infinite number of other problems are still troubling.

We actually had our app hosted at CrystalTech until a couple months ago. Earlier this year, they had a critical power outage, which took our site offline. That's one of the reasons we're not there anymore.

Well, I'm a bit more cynical than you. However, Jack in the Box is probably one of the least likely chains to experience an E. Coli O157:H7 outbreak (since 1993, at least).
