     I'm not talking about the Wayback machine with regards to Vault 7. I'm talking about the Internet Archive. If you follow that link on the screenshot, it takes you to that archive, which has been removed.

     The Internet Archive owns the Wayback Machine, but the Archive is a different service that is a document store. So why have the Vault 7 leaks been removed from the document store and not the Wayback Machine?

     The Twitter Blogs are missing from the Wayback Machine. The Sandy Hook book was removed (it wasn't subject to the publisher situation; as Fetzer released the book for free after it was banned from Amazon). That happened very recently, as I had it open and was reading it in a tab prior to the Archive going down for weeks.

     The "hack" was suspicious, and there are links you can follow where people have commented in why it was suspicious.

     Claims of missing content do not even stand up to casual fact check and remarks about WikiLeaks missing content related to plea agreement are wrong. Technical problems with Wayback saves can be brought to their attention but folks need to verify it is missing like the reference to Vault 7 that has thousands of captures.. If there are verified gaps let @textfiles know specifics but again do the basics to check the claim of missing content isn't a case of some URL error.. Wayback has been my favorite for 25 years and nothing of mine lost so accusations give me a big time cramp! https://web.archive.org/web/20240000000000*/https://wikileaks.org/vault7/#Protego

     Did you even read the fucking article? I stated the Wikileaks missing content didn't relate to the plea agreement.

     It seems like you are the run who immediately rushed to defend your golden cow without actually reading what I'm claiming.

     It's not framed that way at all. Unless you think mainstream sources makes things immediately suspect (maybe I should have said "Daily Dot" .. but multiple sites reported it; that's just the one I used for the source).

     It was researching that claim that led me to discover that the documents weren't removed, as originally claimed by John CD on @adam 's show.

     As part of my writing, I verified the sources, and found out it wasn't true and linked the things (like the plea deal) showing it wasn't true.

     Calm your tits.

     Yes I read it and the comment about Clinton emails disappearing with server problems was framed as something suspicious as unrelated to the plea.. yes I am super reactive because the infosec angels who guard WikiLeaks servers are under constant attacks and things do go offline w DDoS attacks and maintenance and any suggestion that there is anything less than full transparency will get my claws out.

     Sorry chum; don't know who you are or why you got roped in. If you are a volunteer at Archive, I would be interested in the explanation for the missing years on the Twitter blog, and the two documents that are no longer available.
