Redundancy of storage will help. Legacy formats of the images themselves will still be readable, and if you want you can make physical prints and digital negatives. (I make those for Palladium / Platinum printing, and those prints last for a very, very, long time.)
That is the theory. If it were up to the people on the forum, then perhaps - the problem is with kids, grandkids, cousins, etc., to be the ones to be tuned into "legacy formats." I can guarantee that most will not follow through. Fifty years from now that family will have NO visual history.
