- faitswulff 6y agoWhat’s the danger in uploading to archive.org?
- elric 6y agoAside from the can of worms that is copyright infringement? There was a recent HN discussion about how much of a pain it is to get something removed from archive.org. Not uploading people's stuff to permanent, public archives seems like a good rule of thumb.
- tashbarg 6y agoIsn't this just passing the URL to archive.org which then does the actual archiving? If it isn't already public (i.e., reachable by archive.org), it won't be afterwards?
- elric 6y agoSomething can be public today and not tomorrow. Something can be made public by accident. Something can be publically reachable (i.e. a private URL but one without a login) without the intention of being searchable.
