The ArchiveTeam Warrior has been running intermittently on my laptop for ten days now.
It downloads stuff and puts it into the Internet Archive.
Everything's fine. It only runs while I use the laptop. I don't notice it. When the laptop goes into standby and wakes up again that doesn't seem to have any adverse effects.
I've downloaded and uploaded gigabytes so far. The top of the leader board for this project is half a petabyte.
Now I'm considering a installation where it could run around the clock. I don't want to increase our household's standby energy consumption too much, so I will see how that goes.

In the process of downloading the National Archives' youtube channel - 2914 videos. You know the fascists will start deleting these. I will have a shiny new torrent! #datahoarder #datapreservation #preservation #uspol #usgovernment #data #DataRescue #torrent #antifa #resistance #resist
Installed and started the ArchiveTeam Warrior. Very smooth experience.
It downloads stuff and puts it into the Internet Archive.
I took the "ArchiveTeam’s Choice" project and it chose public telegram channels. It's not taking a lot of bandwidth or memory or space or computing, as far as I can tell. It might take too much of my time and focus if I continue staring at the dashboard to try and figure out what all that stuff is.
I didn't expect torrents to go from a pirate's best friend to resisting fascism so abruptly....but here we are. #fascism #datapreservation #dataprotection

EDIT: EMERGENCY! SOME OF THE DATA SETS FROM ARCHIVE.ORG ARE NOW LOCKED. DOWNLOAD THESE NOW!
My US government data hoarding page is up and ready with links and torrents. The torrents are all being seeded by my junkbox torrent server. I will continue to add torrents as I download things.
16TB collection of federal public datasets linked by data.gov, including over 311,000 datasets harvested during 2024 and 2025, are now part of a new data vault project seeking to preserve vital research data.

Due to the current data preservation emergency, I'm pretty sure I'm going to find at least 20 terabytes to stuff into an old 8 drive tower that I'm building out of junk box parts and then I will host government data mirrors that the fascists have wiped out. #datahoarder #datapreservation #fascists
Is anyone out there creating an archive of the EPA’s website? There is a lot of valuable information that could be lost if someone were to do something stupid like, say, remove every mention of climate change.
@mia is up next on integrating enriched metadata into collections platform. "Have we looked after the data we asked people to contribute?"
Me: this sounds like a call for #DigitalPreservation #DigiPres #DataPreservation
