Change them to a different archiving provider
Any recommendations?
It seems that the owner of archive has been running DDOS attacks through java script on visitors' machines. https://cybernews.com/security/archive-today-launches-ddos-directing-visitors-to-attack-blog/
That's a... bit weird.
I prefer that over dealing with paywalls.
I despise both
In response to someone trying to dox him, who is now trying to play the victim.
"he tried to hit me, so I hit him and I haven't stopped yet"
Sound logic indeed.
It's worth clarifying that uncovering someone's identity isn't a crime, but ddos is. Just on the chance you weren't aware of such an important distinction.

That depends on the jurisdiction, the EU has article 8 privacy rights https://audri.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/EN-AUDRi-Briefing-paper-doxing-04.pdf
Which is something you can fight in court, not by committing another crime
Not while maintaining anonymity
Well, in that case I guess it’s okay to commit crimes and distort information as an archiving service. Anonymity above all
Ohh cool, didn't know this was a thing
For many sites like for example spiegel.de and derstandard.at … there are simply no working alternatives.
I've now started reading taz.de instead, they dony't have a paywall. You can even read them via Gopher and Gemini, which is really really useful when on a train in Germany and the bits slowly drip...
taz is an opinionated leftist publication - which is not a bad thing, I read them too - but they don’t really work as a main source of information because of their extreme bias.
I read them because there are a lot of op'eds. I like seeing different views, pros and cons and even if my opinion is not covered, it is helpful to learn how others arrive at their opinion.
There are a few others, but that is the most similar out of the box I think.
