does the government have a day to day contract with the server farm? do they make daily payments?
More BS - selective shutdown.
They are needed to send out surveys you are required to fill out repeatedly because some jack ass with the I Q of sheila jackazzson Lee loses the first ten you send them.
So then the send threatening letters and hound you over the phone
All part of the Essensial part of your federal government. /s
As far as we let it.
Much more and we will have lost this country, at least it looks that way to me.
There was a sports statistician who worked for the Kansas City Star newspaper. In August, on his 60th birthday he committed suicide. He had planned it for over a year and spent much of that time preparing a website detailing his life, death, and the reasons he decided to end his life.
It was likely the only site with so much insight into a person's reasons for such a decision.
He made all preparations to insure that everything was in order with all aspects of his life, finance, relationships (no wife, no children). He thought the site would be of use or interest to others. He paid Yahoo in full for 5 years of hosting for the sight.
One day after he died, Yahoo pulled the plug on the sight.
But you are essentially right. Website hosting is paid by the year at minimum and there would be no point financially in shutting it down, unless you just want to be a petulant baby.

My God!
Now who’s gonna send me a threatening 8 page census form forcing me to cough up endless details about my 1.3 acre residential property’s farming, dairy, ranching and aquaculture operations?
Oh, the humanity!
Wow! Big loss. I wonder how many farmers tune in to their website on a monthly basis. What info could they possibly need that they don’t already have (or get elsewhere like the Weather Station) unless they are newbies.
