We need to do what we can to protect the Internet Archive. Here is a petition that you can sign.

This petition alone might not be enough, but everything we can throw at this counts.

Edit 11/19/2025: Since people keep reblogging this, the petition is already over, we won back on September 15th, I appreciate that everyone is so concerned about this, but there’s no need to worry about this particular issue anymore because the record labels are no longer threatening the Archive, we achieved victory in this particular issue months ago.

*The Internet Archive has a browser extension that lets you automatically archive a page with literally two clicks

And immediately. 10/10. 14/10. Would absolutely recommend

It also lets you see any archived versions of a page with just a few clicks, so it's great for getting around paywalls, as well as for keeping data and news stories from being deleted or moved

You can get the extension (or app for phones?) here:

Chrome Extension

Firefox Add-on

Safari Extension

MS Edge Add-on

iOS app

It crawls major newspapers like the New York Times multiple times per day.

For anything other than one of those scrolling updates breaking news pages, you can access it from the Archive usually within an hour or two of it being published. No paywall. You want international news? You got it. Opinion? That too. Recipes? It's all here. Page not yet archived? There's a button for that and now you got it.

There are various paywall-evading extensions and tricks out there, but they don't always work. This does.

But today, I was thinking that people might not know how to *find* quality fic on those sites, even if they want to.

So in that vein: would folks be interested if I wrote tutorials on how I go about finding (good) fic on the Wayback Machine/FFN/LJ/etc?

stuff from older nin blogs ranging from 1997-2011

i’ll make another post showcasing a bunch of NIN logos i saw too and give you more information

Every now and then I dare to enter the archive wonders. Problem is I sometimes cant remember to get the URLs or ever find my way out :'[

Anyway I hope you enjoy some of these blinkies I found (Part 2 has URLs to a few places)
