the funny thing about the internet archive is that anyone else on this planet could do exactly what they are doing, but they consistently choose not to.

kiwifarms could spin up their own infrastructure, serve their own content for the world, but it turns out technology is a social problem more than a technical problem.

anyone that wants to stand up and be the digital backbone of “kiwi farms” can, but only the internet archive gets flack for not volunteering to be the literal kiwi farm.

for example, the pirate bay goes offline all the time, but it turns out the people that use it, care enough to keep it online themselves.
