This was answered further up the thread - the folder with the ebooks in was missing from the backup by mistake.
My 2c - there is no right answer, it depends on what you're comfortable doing.
I'm curious as to the distinction made between "morals" and "ethics" - is there a generally accepted difference? I would use them almost interchangeably. Perhaps ethics is a code of conduct, whereas morality is case by case? (e.g. is it morally right to break a code of ethics to save many people)
