Do not worry. We have things covered.

It may be a good idea to set up a simple coordination tool in the case of emergencies, for example on Tor or on another place without risk of it being purged. Some simple page where you can update people on the developments in case our sites were to be shut down more drastically. It should be useful to communicate to everyone any new site links or other instructions/updates in those cases. Just a suggestion.

Seconded. Simple html page hosted on tor network on which ritual schedule and possibly other important things are listed is pretty foolproof technically.

We will go for a multi layer approach. Yes, Tor can do that, but even Tor or what is hosted in Tor can be taken down, so reliability is a different aspect.

We want to take this even further than that. Can't say what yet, but we will go there gradually. At first for example, we will have a main-net domain that is far more difficult to be taken down, compared to a ".com" domain. Both will apply for visiting the Forum.

I'll keep our current Ritual schedule at the top of the Rituals page. (Whenever we have a new schedule, I'll put it there.) Updates, as always, will go in the Updates page linked at the top of the home page. I'll try to mirror the most critical updates posted here by the HPs.

Awesome, you're obviously on top of this issue. Good for us!

Sorry to be a bit off topic here. Is this a bad time to go to america for an internship? I'm not sure how will all this go for the upcoming 1 to 2 years. I am really close to accepting some internships as it is so hard to find it these days due to the stupid virus. Much appreciated. :D
