- ffpip 2y agoApologies, did not know verizon was incapable of correctly hosting a PDF. Should have archived it to wayback machine
- justinclift 2y agoDid it just now: https://web.archive.org/web/20240504053821/https://www.verizon.com/business/resources/T7e9/reports/2024-dbir-data-breach-investigations-report.pdf https://web.archive.org/web/20240504053821/https://www.veriz...
- ffpip 2y agoLink not working. They are doing something weird with the PDF
- justinclift 2y agoThat's super bizarre. I manually verified that the url worked after I archived it. I wonder if the do some kind of DCMA thing automatically for urls on their website, to have them removed from the wayback machine?
- ffpip 2y agoYeah it's working now, very weird indeed. DCMA would not work here since they are hosting a copy of it for archival purposes, and not claiming copyright. The original public URL is included. Archive.org does respect robots.txt tho. It is possible to completely delete a site's history on Archive.org by modifying the robots.txt (at least in the past, not sure if that is the case now)
- justinclift 2y agoWow. I tested the link after your comment and it was broken for me at that time as well. So the link really does seem to have flip-flopped between working and non-working a few times. Sound like some kind of weirdness in the archive.org infrastructure might be causing it.
- ffpip 2y agoIt's working now!
