WHAT?? No changes on Friday! I revert all snapshots every Friday so no one gets any big ideas while we try to figure out why we keep getting weekly data loss.

I feel like this could be real. Imagine some guy writing a script that checks a condition and then restores a backup. This guy then leaves and somehow that condition becomes true 3 years later.
