I read yesterday that a study found out that 25% of webpages generated in 2013-2023 are gone forever. Attacking the internet archive maybe has darker motives such as censorship or plainly wanting to erase inconvenient history

1984 that what your saying. They erase the past so they can tell you it never happen.

If I'm blaring Rage, like I have all week, I'm ready to walk or to burn the place down. But I'm a lazy man.

Censorship is probably the most reasonable explanation

[–] MrPoopbutt@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

Or monetizing content. Can't monetize what is freely available.

Which I guess that falls under censorship, just for a different reason
