It looks like the internet archive is needed assistance, I just heard about this today and figured lemmy could help spread this message around

      That’s one of the reasons why uploads to the Archive have torrents.

      Now if they’d just fix the damn tracker…

      Hibestly, I’d say it would be much much worse than your examples. It would be erasing parts of history itself.

        Exactly. Losing Internet and digital history would create another dark ages for future historians. Everything we’ve done would just be gone.

        If I had more money than humanly usable I would create a project that transcribes wikipedia or whatever onto stone/metal plates so it’s not forgotten.
