You need a backup plan before you move to macOS Catalina
As two or three posts have already alluded to, there's a big difference in the Catalina file structure (bifurcated) and generating a bootable backup of Catalina is going to require a lot of work by the developers of SuperDuper! and CCC before they have a shippable (non-beta) version.
And as of now, the back-up drive will have to be connected directly to your computer as opposed to being on a network.
For anyone planning on jumping on the Day One upgrade wagon, suggest reading the developer blogs on the Carbon Copy Cloner and SuperDuper! websites. You'll glean a lot of 'under the hood info' about Catalina and might just decide to delay things a bit.
This article talks about having a good backup prior to the Catalina upgrade but they haven't addressed how you back up Catalina (including the Time Machine limitations with Catalina) the day after you've upgraded. -

Apple insists App Store 'not a monopoly,' expects to win in court
@“We're confident we will prevail when the facts are presented and that the App Store is not a monopoly by any metric."
Well, we’ve seen that sort of bravado over the Qualcomm modem lawsuit, children making unauthorized in-app purchases lawsuit, the iBooks lawsuit, etc. and we know how those turned out.
Believe I'll just take a ‘wait & see’ on this one. -

FBI again asks Apple to unlock iPhones belonging to suspected shooter
Maybe the FBI should develop and robustly fund a hacker division dedicated to breaking into iPhones. And if unsuccessful, maybe they'll finally believe Cook. Then their alternative is to pursue legislative solutions. I want to see which congressmen (on the record) are in favor of forcing companies employing encryption in their devices to intentionally build in a backdoor knowing full well it will be broken or given up by a rogue employee with a better offer. -
