I will not be donating, not now, or ever. They do not respect robots.txt and force companies to use the DCMA to remove their sites from the archive. They are self-righteous pests.
- markx2 5y agoSome months ago I contacted them and requested they remove a domain I owned. I was ignored. Hunting around I found someone who said to send a DMCA formatted in a certain way. That was ignored. I sent another DMCA. They replied and wanted a list of every url to be removed. I got back to them saying it was .example.com/ They said they would get to it. Two or three weeks passed, nothing changed. I got in touch asking why. They said my request was scheduled and would be completed soon. More time passed, no result. I then sent them an email which listed their upstream provider. I said I felt they had adequate time but had failed to act in accordance with my request. I told them they had 7 days and then I would go upstream. Then they deleted what I had asked for. This very much soured how I feel about IA.
