OK what you will read below might sound insane but I am obliged to ask.There are 275 petabytes of NIH data at risk of being deleted. Cancer research, medical data, HIPAA type stuff. Currently unclear where it's located, how it's managed, who has access to what, but lets ignore that for now. It's presumably splattered across data centers, cloud, AWS, supercomputing labs, who knows. Everywhere.
Similar to climate research data back in 2017... It was all accessible via FTP or HTTP though. A Climate Mirror initiative was created and a distributed copy worldwide was made eventually. Essentially, a list of URLs was provided and some helper scripts to slurp multiple copies of data repositories.
