Internet Archive is fantastic!
Read about them and more in this BBC article. And I suggest you to donate some money to the archive.

  We're losing our digital history. Can the Internet Archive save it?
  
  Research shows 25% of web pages posted between 2013 and 2023 have vanished. A few organisations are racing to save the echoes of the web, but new risks threaten their very existence.

  @hehemrin I'm sure you are fully aware of this damaging ruling, which sadly, unless the US Supreme Court take this case they're on borrowed time as a organization. https://mastodon.sdf.org/@joeo10/113080664381467539

    I fully expect SCOTUS to not take up this case and I feel the floodgates are officially open for more lawsuits to be filed against the #InternetArchive (@internetarchive@mastodon.archive.org) where they're now on borrowed time as far as a organization goes which would be a sad end. This from five months ago is still relevant: https://old.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/comments/1bswhdj/if_there_is_a_book_on_internet_archive_your/ It's time to prepare for a likely scenario where the #IA won't exist in 2-5 years and we need to find ways to mirror and backup our projects somewhere else.

    This ruling is a HUGE blow to not only the #InternetArchive (@internetarchive@mastodon.archive.org) but #digitalpreservation and #libraries as a whole. https://www.wired.com/story/internet-archive-loses-hachette-books-case-appeal/ https://archive.ph/9irhZ Official document is here: https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.ca2.60988/gov.uscourts.ca2.60988.306.1.pdf #library #books #print #digital #preservation
