I saw this post and I was curious what was out there.

Id like to put my lab servers to work archiving US federal data thats likely to get pulled - climate and biomed data seems mostly likely. The most obvious strategy to me seems like setting up mirror torrents on academictorrents. Anyone compiling a list of at-risk data yet?
I don’t self-host it, I just use archive.org. That makes it available to others too.
It’s a single point of failure though.
In that they’re a single organization, yes, but I’m a single person with significantly fewer resources. Non-availability is a significantly higher risk for things I host personally.
There was the attack on the Internet archive recently, are there any good options out there to help mirror some of the data or otherwise provide redundancy?
