Personally I consider IA having all the eggs in basket unreasonably risky move. If IA did the basic sane segregation, the legitimate and truly valuable parts would not be facing such high existential risks. For example one way of dividing would be 1) wayback machine 2) public domain collections 3) non-pd collections 4) user-provided content. Having those firewalled into separate services and separate legal entities would protect 1) and 2) when its 3) and 4) that are drawing these attacks. This lack of separation is also hurting IA in other ways; I think Wayback Machine and PD archives are really important and valuable, but right now I can not support or even endorse IA because their poor leadership playing with fire and putting those services under unnecessary risk.
