Bot traffic or human traffic doesn't matter. The goal is to read websites without having your own access. So Internet Archive, Archive.today, Archive.ph, etc.

So Internet Archive, Archive.today, Archive.ph, etc. are all just means to the same end.
- HDBaseT 20d agoI think you have the wrong impression of the Internet Archive. The internet archive is not designed to circumvent anything. It is not designed to "grant access without having your own access".
- fluffybucktsnek 20d agoInternet Archive's traffic may not matter to you, but that's the main topic of this discussion, regardless of what you care or use website archival tools for.
- publlus_enigma 20d agoI suspect you may be conflating two different things. Archive.org exists to preserve historical snapshots of the public parts of websites, and not to bypass subscriptions or pay walls.
