A better approach is to have a reverse proxy in a difference account/hosting provider. That way the take-down is of the proxy which should be minimal config and no data. Setting up another reverse proxy in the event of a take-down should be minimal effort. It then becomes a game of whack a mole if anybody wants to take down a service. I assume this is how The Pirate Bay stayed up for so long. Downside is doubling bandwidth costs.
