I don't carry around EC2 servers my backpack. Me getting hit by a bus wouldn't take the servers down immediately.

  If you get hit by a bus, who alerts your users and how? If your users aren't alerted, they may not realise that anything is amiss until AWS freeze your account for non-payment (for example). I can't say that I spend a lot of time keeping up-to-date on the project leaders' obituaries for services I use. I don't imagine I'm unusual in this regard :) Edit: This is just a rhetorical question, not a demand for explanation :) - just saying that being hit by a bus does not automatically mean that users are shifting off your service in 24 hours.
