Or just have 10 accounts so you only have downtime when your own internet is down.

And run 2 or 3 uplinks to different ISPs so that you're never offline.

And setup your own transmission dish so you can instantaneously switch to satellite if all ISPs go dark

Yes, that's called StarLink. Definitely a good option, if you make your own power.

Nice. Where is power port on a hooker? Eh, nevermind.

I use photovoltaics, but not insular blackstart-capable battery buffered so when the grid is down I also have no power. Next year, though. Seems it's 2000 EUR minimum.
