More likely, there will be trustee services taking care of document preservation, themselves insured in case of data loss.

Isn't the Internet Archive such a trustee service?

Or are you thinking of companies like Iron Mountain that provide such a service for paper? But even within corporations, not everything goes to a service like Iron Mountain, only paper that is legally required to be preserved.

A society that doesn't preserve its history is a society that loses its culture over time.
