No, that's quite literally a link. "Link" is a metaphor for a chain, and that's how a chain looks: interlinked. It be a link if they were even located in the same building.
- mynameisvlad 4y agoAll it shows is that they both have similar member lists. Which is a given considering how extremely niche the topic of “internet archival” is. How does that actually link the two organizations? By your extremely broad definition, every organization in the world is “linked” to every other by the fact that they all are Earth based. That’s technically correct I guess, but not even remotely helpful in actually establishing a connection between two organizations.
