Assuming the $5 VPS provider has proper backup and recovery procedures in place.
Also assuming the sun doesn’t end in a sudden heat death event.
Also assuming that my fingers aren’t removed in a thresher accident.
And assuming the provider has electricity.
Etc etc etc, it’s important to vet that services I pay for have SLAs and are competent.
This wouldn't happen with a $5 pitchfork and a stone threshing floor
In the event a provider terminates my account I could not care less. The files will be at multiple providers and HAProxy will automatically remove them when the content validation health checks fail.
