I have no proof of course, but the timing does give rise to valid reason for concern.
I don't give a fig about some company blog, but regardless, in an era where the internet is starting to forget, any situation like this causes hearts to sink.
- duskwuff 2y ago> I have no proof of course, but the timing does give rise to valid reason for concern. What timing? The stretch of missing data ends in late 2023.
- ryzvonusef 2y agoOh I don't mean timing in a political or elon-purchase sense. I meant if the data is missing because of the hack. It's entirely possible internet archive never indexed the blog from 2019-2023...so there was no data to lose. But I find that hard to believe. Seems random. They scanned before and after but not during this time for some reason? I really really hope the hack wasn't reason for the data to be missing, because that can give reason to fear that other obscure data might be missing too.
- nicolas_17 2y agoWas it there before the hack?
- ryzvonusef 2y agogood point! It's entirely possible internet archive never indexed the blog from 2019-2023...so there was no data to lose. But I find that hard to believe. Seems random.

I really really hope the hack wasn't reason for the data to be missing, because that can give reason to fear that other obscure data might be missing too. Things more important to us than a company blog.
