Yeah, have kicked this idea around before; “everstore”. The cost would initially be ridiculous, on the order of say $100/gb or $200/gb to have data stored “forever”. The interest on the money paid plus lowering cost of storage mean that you really only have to get past the first 10 years after which storage is anticipated to be more or less free. The hard part is governance of the data. Stuff like, dealing with the data of deceased people, how you structure the trust, access resets (after say 10 years many many people will lose access), etc. Legal issues like laws changing around legality of content. The technical part is actually quite easy in comparison. Trying to ensure the continuance of a human institution seems harder.
