Latest update on the DDOS attack from Brewster Kahle (Oct 11 @ 10:22am PT):
"The data is safe.
Services are offline as we examine and strengthen them. Sorry, but needed. @internetarchive staff is working hard.
Estimated Timeline: days, not weeks.
Thank you for the offers of pizza (we are set)."

When I saw the service down message yesterday, i genuinely said ‘oh no!!!’ out loud in public
Glad to hear you’re doing ok
Once the site is back up and running anyone who hasn’t updated your ia password please do so and also update your email password just in case and put 2 step verification as well
I don't believe in the DDOS attack, it's nothing but grouping of digital feudals,to push liberals out and monetise everything in digital kingdom and initiate knowledge scarcity digitally,prove it's not,kahle,the attacker.
Now that I've experienced the internet without the Internet Archive, I can officially say.
Not having a central archive is a WEIRD feeling...
I can’t wait for you guys to get back. I’m kinda lost online without you
So why would hackers claim you have ties to Israel when you're only a non-profit library?
Seriously, if they claim to support Palestine, why would they think you're connected to Israel? There's some research about Palestine (even though it's in maintenance mode or something).
And those hackers are Israelis, and that makes it worse.
You must be one lonely ass depressed Hacker to hack a website that offers everything for free?. What's wrong with these people 🤣
It sound goods but I really hope you guys are not bending to the will of the government and removing materials from your database cuz they said so!!!
How long will it be down? And will you tell us if you made to remove anything?
I don’t think the government was involved it was a group of hackavists that did plus they are not removing anything but given you believe what are believe I’m gonna let you be you
Damn, so sad. Well, I hope this site can get fixed in time.
Once the site is back up, require all users to change their passwords before logging back in.
I did it just this Wednesday before the maintenance happen
Does that mean there was not a breach of 31 million names, as reported? That's the data I'm most worried about now. Was 31 million passwords compromised?
I've seen someone on YouTube comment saying it got to be the government or corporations trying to erase history. It should instead be some random teenagers, right? Aren't billionaires able to afford something more dangerous than DDoS and JS injection?
It a group of hackivist not government the comment is a conspiracy theorist
BTW, I think now would be a great moment to start your end of year donation drive and put a big banner on the start page. The case makes itself, as we say in Germany
I sure hope someone has an Internet Archive of the Internet Archive! It's a shame it's limited to just 1 site.
God speed.... I love the archive.... come back soon!
One 'site' does not mean one copy or one physical location. The data itself never went down.
I hope there's some kind of device that makes backup tapes and poops them out into a bucket, and that you have one (or two)
I was like, "Brewster Kahle is the ATTACKER?" oh wait
Time for another donation, as soon as it is safe to do so.
I look forward to your being back on line. Your work is essential
Belorussians did it. They are changing the history of the planet 🌍 using me , my iPhone.
Y'all are doing great work out there, and may the cowards who perpetrated this crime against your hallowed institution feed solely on aquarium gravel and wood glue for eternity.
If u enjoy my contents give me a direct message 🥰🥰
