IT LOOKS LIKE ARCHIVE.IS HAS BEEN BLOCKED IN AUSTRALIA.

What is that?

An archiving site. It lets you get a snapshot of a page managed by a third party. A screenshot is a cruder version of that, but a screenshot can be edited.

Having a copy of a webpage preserved is vital for Free Speech.

Why?

BECAUSE PEOPLE LIE.

Say the BBC puts out a story that your son was going around raping babies. Then they delete it. Then they claim they never said that. How are you going to prove that they are lying?

You need some sort of independent archive, to keep them honest.

And it looks like either the Australian government, or ISPs acting on its behalf, have censored it.

I remember everyone was worried when the year 1984 was coming around, and acted like it was a false alarm. The truth is that it's been creeping in for decades, like a river flooding higher, higher. Bitchute, 4chan, archive.is, every outlet of independent speech is being shut down.

Sometimes the WayBack Machine cannot archive a page - if the page is dynamic or has images, that info is not always preserved. WayBack also has problems with twitter and comments on blogging platforms.

In those cases, I’ve used archive.is. It is a solo operation (run by 1 person) so long term reliability is not as good as the Wayback Machine/Internet Archive. But Archive.is being used by more and more people across the world for political resistance - as it can capture a wider range of web info.

Right now it costs the owner 800 Euros a week to run. Current weekly donations: 5 euros. That is 1%.  If you want to set up a weekly donation go here:  https://liberapay.com/archiveis

If you see something that you think might be deleted by the new government, use one of these 3 web archiving services to create a backup. Note: they will only backup the page, not all of the links.

Other options are: WebCite at webcitation.org (they have an extension): http://www.webcitation.org/bookmarklet

and archive.is (also an extension): https://archive.fo/
