@internetarchive @brewsterkahle

I'm really sorry that you got attacked. Internet Archive is one of my favorite sites on the interwebs. Hope everything gets resolved soon xo

@internetarchive @brewsterkahle as a severely disabled person on a very limited income your service is crucial to me. When I saw the service was down I was initially in a state of panic as your service opens up the world of vintage content to me like no order service on the net. I wish you well and hope to be using your service again when the times is right and you have done all that is required to keep that rare and important content safe.Thank you.

@internetarchive @brewsterkahle For a second, I mistakenly thought @brewsterkahle was the culprit of the DDoS attack from your phrasing.

@internetarchive @brewsterkahle All this feels like some bullies kicking and hitting the nice guy for fun. Why? Because they can?

@internetarchive @brewsterkahle
I hope, that once the dust settles, you’ll publish, which JS library you had to disable.

The Internet Archive preserves a historical record of *every website on the internet*, since nearly the beginning of the World Wide Web. Whoever is behind the DDOS clearly stands to profit from reduced transparency of information, from a less educated public.
