Mention if off-site backups are kept #165

On https://archive.org/about/faqs.php#The_Wayback_Machine , mention: Q: Is the Archive itself archived? E.g., an angry person, finds (via https://archive.org/about/contact.php#directionsRichmond ) and destroys the physical archive. Mention if off-site backups are kept.

Or just perhaps mention https://archive.org/donate/ , which lists plans for example of a Canadian offsite backup.

Would be nice if a backup was stored in Svalbard, like the GitHub Archive Program. 😊 Even though The Internet Archive actually already is a partner. 🤔 Not that great backups/redundancy is already in place at The Internet Archive, (also).
