I've been tempted to get one of my neighbors to host a small box with ~4 drives and then either rsync or zfs send backups to it over wifi; that'd protect against fire or theft, but not major earthquakes. I don't think we're at risk from any other obvious disasters. The up-front cost would be kind of steep, but sending 50 GB of new data at a time would be trivial, unlike most online services. With my current DSL link, it'd take at least a week to ship 50 GB of data offsite, and I have ~2 TB in use. Even if I exclude some filesystems, it'd still be a mess. Of course, you have to be on good terms with your neighbors for this to work.
