Backing up data can be difficult, especially when you only want to copy files that changed since the last backup.

Snapshots are protected from accidental deletion or modification since they are read-only by default. The super-user can delete intermediate snapshots to save space, but files and directories that existed before or after the deletion will still be accessible
