In reply to Do███ Sch████ (@dosch).

Thanks Dosch. Reviewing the content you pointed out, I've revised the post by removing that sentence. No company or service provider is immune from disappearing from existence. Although highly unlikely WordPress.com will be going anywhere any time soon, it's something everyone using the service should keep in the back of their mind.

One interesting aspect to this "Home" thing as well is that a common analogy to explain the differences between WordPress.org and WordPress.com is to say that WordPress.com is like an apartment whereas WordPress.org gives you a chance to own a home. You comment fits right in with that analogy.
