In a response you said: "I would understand your claim if you wrote that you unsubscribed from recurring donations. But why should I—or anyone else—be interested in your use of a free utility?" Maybe you shouldn't be interested, except that my concerns seem to be shared by lots of other people — and by Wikipedia, which says you are no longer trustworthy. Maybe you don't care about that either, but if you don't care what users or Wikipedia or any of its users think then why did you bother setting up archive.today in the first place?

Archive.is blog

Archive.is blog Does this website track you? (I found a: top-fwz1 domain in the source code of archive is) Are you DMCA compliant? How do I get illegal revenge porn images removed? Hello, hope everything is going well :) 2 small questions: Any specific reason as to why the archive was down earlier due to a server error? Also, every so often I (and some friends) will see nothing but a rotating loading circle when trying to access the website, what’s the reason for that? Thank you! After a lot of reading, I'm inclined to believe that the accusations against you are fabricated, but there's one thing I'm still not clear on: did you actually set up any code to send repeated random requests to an external site? If so, I'm curious what your reasoning was, as I can't seem to think of a good reason. Even if was a significant threat, that still seems like an odd way to respond. P.S. If you get the TV interview, could you link to a recording, pretty please? (Even if there's no English) Archive.is blog Archive.is blog anyway, what's your relations to verified.lu? The archive does host a lot of CSAM though - not to impugn the work of the archive, but whenever somebody seems to report CSAM to the archive, pages are merely hidden rather than fully removed (eg with a vpn). A user complained on x a while ago about the archive not removing CSAM when reported and some archived pages (like smutty.***) contain potentially hundreds of CSAM. Have you at least considered looking yourself and removing any CSAM you see? • "Trustworthiness" in my question meant "reputation of being trustworthy", i.e. reputation of you not modifying saved pages to insert fake information into them. Guarantees about your archive being trustworthy are literally on the main page: > Archive.today is a time capsule for web pages! It takes a 'snapshot' of a webpage that will always be online even if the original page disappears > … > and provides a short and reliable link to an unalterable record of any web page. This was true until very recently you chose to tarnish that reputation and began inserting fake information into saved pages. • Do you think there's absolutely no illegal content on your archive, including CSAM? That's simply consequences of you refusing to remove information no matter what. I'm not saying that this approach is wrong or right, you just need to accept these consequences when someone points them out. • Is me saying that some website/company is American also "nationalism" or whatever bad political position you think it is? Or I wanted to say I still support you on liberapay, but now I see I stopped paying about a year ago when my card somehow stopped working. Oops. Maybe you should set a paywall, lol. (No, I love that you don't.) Your site is great even with all the recent drama. You and that girl that does Sci-Hub are two heroes of the internet that everyone somehow also pretends to hate. Of course in the ideal platonic world your site would not be necessary, but here we are. Well, then let me chim in: I cancelled my weekly Liberapay donations to you in January after all of the DDoS nonsense. Why should I continue to donate to you after you've just destroyed all trustworthiness you had? I have used and like archive.today, but the knowledge that when I use it, my browser is hijacked to DDoS some guys website — or that archive.today has been altering screenshots of pages — makes me question whether I can trust your service any more. Why should I continue to use it? I get your perspective is different and its true that the site has been unfairly maligned for a long time. I guess my perspective is different because I've been using the site for over a decade, and I have deeply appreciated what you are doing, I've donated in the past. Your site is a valuable resource precisely because it often contradicts the narrative of those 'noble' sites. It may feel like a thankless effort, it likely is but its relevance shows its not a lost cause. Thanks for those years. in /post/111781148156/are-some-ips-blocked-to-reache-your-site you mention the block out of curiosity what was the reason for blocking small netblock in Poland ? The entire reason your site was valuable is because of its credibility as a third party archival site. There's a reason the U.S. govt wants to find anything they can to discredit you; because it threatens them to have an objective resource that you can reliably point as proof something was on the Internet or was changed. With this DDoS shit and editing pages you have completely destroyed the site's credibility, & for what? bafflingly self-induced sabotage. Now you've given an excuse not to care. Also stop fucking coping about how this was actually "worth it" and a good thing. Take some responsibility for the position and importance you had, and how utterly useless your entire handling of this has been even in pursuit of whatever retributive goal you had in mind. Have you ever heard of the Streisand effect? You do realize that by tying the downfall of the site to that guy's blogpost, now people will have to talk about it as context for what you did? Just own it and admit the mistake.
