Fortunately hosting is a commodity and you can get what rackspace sells from any number of providers. Don't like the terms? Don't do business with Rackspace. Vote with your feet and your dollars and make sure you tell them you're leaving be

A bit of evidence to underscore just how much difference: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1369307/Japan-tsunam... If the same thing were to happen in Bangladesh it likely would take a bit longer to fix.
