@tagesschau Es gibt derzeit eine Menge Freiwillige, die Forschungsdaten retten. Folgt @SafeguardingResearch und @internetarchive für mehr Info! Wäre auch mal einen Artikel wert, was Freiwillige im #Widerstand leisten.

Das Wort wird zwar gern überstrapaziert, aber staatlich, noch dazu von der Regierung angeordnete Löschung aus politischen Gründen ist tatsächlich ganz eindeutig Zensur: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zensur_(Informationskontrolle)

Update. "As the Trump administration purges web pages, this group is rushing to save them"
https://www.npr.org/2025/03/23/nx-s1-5326573/internet-archive-wayback-machine-trump

"After President Trump's inauguration in January, some federal web pages vanished. While…were removed entirely, many came back online with changes that…officials said were made to conform to Trump's executive orders to remove "diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility policies." Thousands of datasets were wiped — mostly at agencies focused on science and the environment…Information about climate change, reproductive health, gender identity and sexual orientation also have been on the chopping block…The #InternetArchive [@internetarchive] is among the few efforts that exist to catch the stuff that falls through the digital cracks, while also making that information accessible to the public. Six weeks into the new administration, #WaybackMachine director Graham said, the Internet Archive had cataloged some 73,000 web pages that had existed on U.S. government websites that were expunged after Trump's inauguration."

The interview (https://www.kqed.org/news/12031980/what-happens-if-the-internet-archive-goes-dark ) to @brewsterkahle continues:

"those who control the past control the present, those who control the present control the future. The idea of a #library is part of an ecosystem of how society remembers. That’s how it thinks of itself. If you were to erase the #InternetArchive and the libraries, which is in many ways happening now, then we will live in a danger of having people be able to recast what happened"

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.

#archiveTeam

It comes from a loose coalition of #archivists & #librarians, who are standing athwart #history & yelling “Save!” They belong to organizations such as the #InternetArchive, which co-created a project called the End of Term Web Archive to back up the federal web in 2008; the Environmental Data & Governance Initiative, or #edgi; & #libraries at major #universities such as #MIT & the University of #Michigan.

The erasure of this Black #MedalOfHonor recipient is another example of what I'm helping to document on @wikipedia with the help of the @internetarchive.

@Rocket @internetarchive There are extensions to automate it so that every single page you visit is automatically saved if it hasn't been saved in the last 30 days.

I use the Internet Archive Saver, which works on Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge, etc

Update. "EDGI Relaunches Federal Environmental Web Tracker"
https://envirodatagov.org/press-release-edgi-relaunches-federal-environmental-web-tracker/

"In response to the #Trump administration’s rapid dismantling of federal websites, the Environmental Data & Governance Initiative (#EDGI) has relaunched its Federal Environmental Web Tracker…The… Tracker makes records of significant changes to federal environmental websites publicly available in a searchable database…Since the first Trump administration, EDGI has monitored thousands of federal environmental webpages. Partners at the #InternetArchive download these webpages every day, and EDGI’s #OpenSource software compares versions of these webpages to identify differences."

Update. "Wayback Machine Saves Thousands of Federal Webpages Amid Purge of Government Data Under Trump"
https://www.democracynow.org/2025/2/28/internet_archive_trump_admin_data_purge

"Thousands of informational government webpages have been taken down so far in the second #Trump administration, including on public health, scientific research and LGBTQ rights. Amid this mass erasure of public information, the #InternetArchive is racing to save copies of those deleted resources."

Update. "How the Wayback Machine is preserving outdated government websites."

"The #WaybackMachine is helping preserve the record of government websites before they were changed by the TTrump administration. CBS News Confirmed's Rhona Tarrant reports."
