- hdevalence 13y agoThe page was cited in a Supreme Court decision, but of course giving a URL is far less permanent than giving a citation to an article in a newspaper, magazine, journal, etc. Since the Supreme Court just gave the URL, if it weren't for the Wayback machine coincidentally happening to grab it, we would never be able to see what Justice Alito was actually referring to.

It's basically highlighting how there's a lot of linkrot, which makes re-reading old Supreme Court decisions difficult.
