With this move, Facebook will get even more business, and less and less small companies will see the need to build and maintain their own sites. It is also a great move against Shopify

Keep all important data with you, both in your PC (better encrypted) and in an external disk (backup). If you are really paranoid, you may backup it in the cloud too, S3, Dropbox or any other service.
