Stupid question: what the shit do you do with your 15 years of communication history if your email provider falls off a cliff?

I would recommend getting a Google Takeout export every year or so. Even before it falls off a cliff it's a good idea to have your own backups. Accounts can get blocked, hacked, etc.
