Sorry which medium sized forum are you referring to?

I love forums and want them to continue, I'm not sure where you got the idea that I dislike them as a medium. I was just pointing out that public sites in general have started to see some attrition a bit lately for a variety of reasons, and the tooling needs to keep with new mediums as they appear.

I also make no apology for the content, in fact ArchiveBox is explicitly designed to archive the most vile stuff for lawyers and governments to use for long term storage or evidence collection. One of our first prospective clients was the UN wanting to use it to document Syrian war crimes. The point there was that we can save stuff without amplifying it, and that's sometimes useful in niche scenarios.

Lawyers/LE especially don't want to broadcast to the world (or tip off their suspect) that they are investigating or endorsing a particular person, so the ability to capture without publicly announcing/mirroring every capture is vital.

I guess he's talking about K_wi F_rms which was mentioned in one of the screenshots...

Ahh that makes sense. Well all I can say to that is that it's not up to me what's evil. The point I was trying to make is: sometimes you want to archive something that you don't endorse / don't want to be publicly linked.

You might not want to amplify and broadcast the fact that you're archiving it to the world.

It's just a forum like any other and yet you're acting like it's, at least, the Devil 2.0.

what? I think you have posted in the wrong thread or something...

User A complained about a forum, user B asked what they were talking about, and I guessed as to the meaning of user A's complaint. So why am I acting like anything?
