You are right, and unfortunately that has already happened. I have become more diligent about helping teachers who launched their class one or more years ago to host their content in other formats, or transfer them to PDFs. In some cases I was even going to the Google cache version, transferring it to a free blog, and making it available.

One of our main needs with Open Compass was the expenses that came with running servers all the time, and hosting said content. We did not officially define how that would work yet, but ideally the content would be housed in Open Compass, but the teacher still retains all rights/control. At least that way if their domain expired this would be less of an issue. Sadly we're just a very small team, and we are the sole investors.
