Yup. Even in basic shitty IT project we create multiple backups. For basic cloud projects we'll spread computing resources across multiple data centers as default, so if one goes down our shitty web app stays live for our 50 concurrent users.

These "people" sent a plane into the sky with hundreds of people aboard with zero redundancies. They deserve to be sued into the dirt. We should be seeing executives in orange jumpsuits and handcuffs breaking the omerta to avoid life sentences.
