I'm interested in why you are saying that the Internet Archive is taking too much credit for the end of term web archive. The website you link to demonstrates that it's run by the Internet Archive, although various partners have joined it since it began. Is that not correct? > And I don't know what Archive Team is but maybe they could update their site to provide some information on the people involved. You don't need to reveal your identity, but looking through your comments, it looks like you originally spun up this account to criticize the Internet Archive. I'll just note that accusing others of being "anonymous radicals" falls a little flatter when you're anonymous yourself. (Relevant disclosure: I've worked with IA and Brewster Kahle, and defended him here before.) |

It's not run by the Archive. It's a collaboration. They didn't even do all the crawling, and the Library of Congress keeps a copy.

As for Archive Team, their site declares "Archive Team is a loose collective of rogue archivists, programmers, writers and loudmouths."
Dedication is great. And radicalization in response to copyright and preservation certainly deserves some leeway. But a little professionalism wouldn't hurt and the 2600-era roleplay isn't fooling anyone.
