Ooo, excellent. Yes, hiding items is imperfect, but I understood that it was legally required or something. (IANAL and IDFK, TBH) I wonder how perma.cc gets around that.
> The article concludes that Perma.cc's archival use is neither firmly grounded in existing fair use nor library exemptions; that Perma.cc, its "registrar" library, institutional affiliates, and its contributors have some (at least theoretical) exposure to risk
It seems that the article is about copyright, but of course there are several other reasons that might justify takedown of content stored on perma.cc:
- Right to be forgotten... perma.cc might be able to ignore it, but could this lead to perma.cc being blocked by european ISPs
- ITAR stuff
- content published by entities recognized by $GOVERNMENT as terrorist organizations
