This type of possibility really worries me. Archive.is is much closer to actual history in many ways. If the data there starts getting corrupted or biased, there’s no way to know if what was truly there.

The idea that the permanent record of the internet could hinge on the ethics of one stranger behind a server rack is deeply unsettling.

This happens on .gov websites a lot now, and it is deeply unsettling.

Knowing the current owner of archive.is doesn't help; we need more full, independent Internet mirrors that can be compared against each other.

Archive.is does not archive the page exactly as is.

And when the information on archive.is starts getting corrupted, those links can be adjusted or removed.

Who will catch it, when and how?
