Subject: Could you hide your blog post on archive.today for some time?
To: jani@REDACTED
Hello Jani
Could you hide the blog post
https://gyrovague.com/2023/08/05/archive-today-on-the-trail-of-the-mysterious-guerrilla-archivist-of-the-internet/
from public access, at least for some time (2-3 months) ?
I do not mind the post, but the issue is: journos from mainstream
media (Heise, Verge, etc) cherry-pick just a couple of words from your
blog, and then construct very different narratives having your post
the only citable source; then they cite each other and produce a
shitty result to present for a wide audience.
Thanks

Hi there,
Thanks for reaching out, and apologies for the slow response, this was in
my Spam folder.
I appreciate the service you provide, but I would be more inclined to
cooperate if you were not simultaneously sending me legal cease and desist
letters and attempting to DDOS my site.
Why do you expect things to be different after 2-3 months? And is there
anything in particular (names etc) that you would like to remove
permanently?

Hey,
Just following up on this, since your DDOS attack is starting to draw
external attention and even the "Web Abuse Association Defense"
has reached out to me.
Cheers,
Jani

Hi there,
You reached out to me on January 10th, and I responded on the 15th, but
despite several attempts I haven't heard back from you and your DDOS attack
continues.
I do not want to aid your enemies, but if you don't cease the DDOS, I'll
have to publish a follow up blog post, a copy of which is attached for your
review.
Let me know how you'd like to proceed.
Jani

The only response we received from you was the one forwarded to us by Wordp=
ress Inc., a chatgpt-generated one with refuse to delete personal informati=
on. So now there is no other option but to escalate the matter in various w=
ays.

You emailed me with the subject "Could you hide your blog post on
archive.today for some time?" on January 10th, and I responded to you
directly on January 15th and 21st.
Anyway, taking the blog post down entirely is not an option, but I'm
willing to change some wording that you feel is being misrepresented. Let
me know.
Jani

I don't mind the new blog post, even though it has its problems (feigned mi=

No, you're Streisanding yourself: the DDOS has already drawn more
attention to my blog post than it had gotten in the last two years, with
zero action on my side.
The deal I'm offering you is simple: you stop the DDOS, I don't publish the
new blog post, and we both pretend this never happened.

One more time: I do not care on your blog and its content. I just need the =
links from Heise and other media to be 404.
And I'd prefer your new blog post to be published for its WAAD insights.
