Yes, I keep local backups of poal and the database and could roll out poal onsite in a matter of minutes. Obviously my bandwidth is limited but in the event of something like this poal would not die or even experience much downtime while I found a new host. In the event I lost my connection and the host shut us down I could even roll out on another connection I have access too relatively quickly over mobile. I've spent a fair bit of time thinking about this and I have an even better plan in the works but I'll sit on that one until its either ready or closer too it.
Good to know that you're prepared. I guess the problem is where to host if shit gets ugly.
I've got a list of alternatives. Worst case scenario I'll start my own god damn datacenter.
Hey! A site owner who actually gives a fuck!
This experience has all the magic of my first encounter with a shiny Pokémon.
