We've known that the NSA stores everything they can get their hands on for more than a decade. It's one of those things we just pretend isn't still happening.

I really should stop worrying about data backup. Why pay for it?

Backing up data is just as important as restoring it. Good luck getting the NSAs copy.

FOIAing a backup of your lost website would be epic.

We also might be able to fill in some gaps in the internet archive that way someday.

Just a simple FOIA request, and 3 month lead time to get data back printed on stacks of paper
