One third party, no. Many third parties, yea
Still need to be careful. I once needed redundancy for simple web service for a hobby project. Set up 3 free websites on different hosting providers. Turns out all 3 were owned by the same company, running on the same servers so my service went down anyway.
that doesn't count as redundancy so uh :)
this is the primary reason people tend to use local archives in a giant p2p network. It's incredibly resilient and highly redundant by nature.
Yeah, point was I did not know that. How many companies on the internet don't rely on AWS? Would you even be able to tell which ones they are?
you could probably figure it out with a bit of google fu. Though you would also still be dependent on potentially 3rd party factors at that point. Like using cloudflare for example. They've been known to break the global internet a few times.
