Archive the site into a file, get the strongest radio transmitter you can find, point it at the closest black hole and then just start beaming bits for long as you like.

Some of those RF photons will arrive just outside the event horizon and be bent ~180° to a trajectory that will intercept the earth’s path about the same amount of time in the future.

By then we will have solar-system sized radio receivers that can pick it up (or, to satisfy the doomophiles, ‘land on a dead planet’)
