Why are people fucking with the Internet Archive? Who benefits?
People use Archive links to avoid giving sites traffic.
This is a problem for advertisers and media corps.
Not saying they’re the ones doing this, but they’d definitely benefit.
I’ve enjoyed using Wayback Machine on journalistic articles where they try to retcon information, but the original copy had already been captured. The Ministry of Truth hates archive.org.
Apparently, BlackMeta is behind the DDoS attack to the Internet Archive. Apparently they are pro-Palestine hacktivists - their X account also has some russian written in it.
(Edit) Also, Internet Archive is banned on China since 2012 and Russia since 2015.
Definitely not their genocidal neighbors terrorizing as usual. /s
