Another reason why @archive.org is so important: preserving the facts about elections and campaigns for later study.

Here’s an insider report on what’s going on behind the scenes to bring Internet Archive services online: www.reddit.com/r/internetar...
Insider Report I am in town (SF) for our events next week, I talked to many people with more to come, and I'm sneaking out this verified fact: People are working so incredibly hard. The teams have getting the site back secure and safe as the number one priority. They have taken no days off this past week. They are taking none this weekend. There is a small set of people working on organizing the events next week. The rest, the developers and admins, this is all they are doing. The vast amount of our patrons understand the situation. A few do not and seem to think we are not doing this work literally round the clock. I spent today talking with tired and thoughtful people putting their all in. If someone out there was to do some grand gesture for this team, let me know. Otherwise, be assured: they are working with all of their energy and considerable talent.
