Nobody tell NYT about being able to add another “.” Subsequent to”.com” to bypass their paywall.
Is the Guardian actually blocking the Internet Archive? Seems to work for me
Meanwhile,
e; huh, Mediapost article did in fact start loading on the Archive a few minutes after I posted this
Fuck Reddit. That website has been selling our data and using it to train AI… I say fuck 'em
I’m certain they’ve wanted to do this for a long time, and AI is a convenient way to justify it, rather than admitting they don’t want humans using it to circumvent the paywall. It does solidify for me personally that the LA Times is the paper of record for the United States going forward, rather than the New York Times.
The LA Times also blocks the Internet Archive unfortunately. I’d recommend PBS NPR ProPublica or some other nonprofit organization for your US paper of record.
Really? They think Internet Archive is the problem?
They think they want their revenue streams
They think AI companies are using it as a “backdoor” to scrape their content. Which is patently ridiculous, but that won’t stop them.
I wander what happened to Archive in 2024 when it was “hacked” and some pages “disappeared”…
Wait until they find out that AI is scraping their web sites.
Well, Reddit’s got a contract for AI companies to scrape their content, so pig boy Spez is getting paid, he don’t give a fuck
I’m sure they don’t care, or are all about it.
Buuuut they all say that we need to donate to save free speech! It can’t be a lie right?
Mainly pointing at the guardian here as they are sliding down the same slope that the other two slops did.
By “donate” you mean “buy a subscription”?
Gotta control the press before you can rewrite history.
That’s very 1984 of them
that’s fuken lame.
Should be fairly easy to defeat, no?
Is this related to the owner of those multiple archive sites being outed as a Russian DDoS perpetrator?
Nope. Different org, unrelated rationale.
No. This is a different archive site
I’m sure it’s more to do with archive bypassing their advertising and subscription.
