Users can now export their photos until the 25th, at which point they’ll vanish into the void. Since you want this to be illegal, what do you propose instead?

Since you want this to be illegal, what do you propose instead? Some country's taxpayers pay to keep the servers up maybe?
And really why should it be illegal, doesn't the government stick it's nose into far too much already? Do you mean illegal illegal, or breach-of-contract "illegal" (in which case, what contract)?

- sp332 12y agoWell, all the TwitPic data is public.
- general_failure 12y agoSure but most services that shutdown have some sort of personal data or the other. You cannot dump them on the internet archive.
- kalleboo 12y agoIt would be interesting to see a form of "data insurance". Company pays insurance premiums by stored TB, and if they go bust, the insurance company ensures the data is kept hosted (be it themselves or by preparing the data and donating resources to the Internet Archive)

- sp332 12y agoThe TwitPic export page is giving 503 errors, so you can't export your stuff.
