Archive.org was asked to remove archives of all books, TV, cartoons, and more by the EU

Is archive.is next?

Nations around the world are cracking down on online terrorist content, introducing legislation that penalizes sites and ISPs if they fail to remove suspect content. But that fight could pose a real threat to sites like the Internet Archive, a nonprofit that saves old copies of webpages and other digital information.

In a blog post yesterday, the organization explained that it received more than 550 takedown notices from the European Union in the past week “falsely identifying hundreds of URLs on archive.org as ‘terrorist propaganda’.”

The notices came from Europol’s European Union Internet Referral Unit (or EU IRU) and its French counterpart. They included URLs for major collection pages, each containing millions of items (e.g., “https://archive.org/details/texts” and “https://archive.org/details/television”) as well as links to scientific research and US government reports, including TV footage from CSPAN.

I first saw this here.

CIA invented the internet. What is their anti-counter in the EU?

horrible. They behave like the inquisition.

If the EU would have existed already in 15th century, the printing press never would have been invented and Johannes Gutenberg would have been thrown in jail.

"US government reports, including TV footage from CSPAN."

BIG PHARMA AND JOE BIDEN MUST BE BEHIND THIS.

Jay Rockefeller too:

"Jay Rockefeller: Internet should have never existed" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ct9xzXUQLuY MUST READ COMMENTS! LOL!

The only decent Rockefeller is the one who joined a tribe of cannibals instead of trying to fuck this nation up.

They "confirm" he was eaten every few years. Its never any new information. It's always just repeating about how that's what some naked savages told them.

1961....23 years old. It might have been safer to go to Viet Nam.

I totally understand their need to erase history.

me too. President Trump has said our real enemy is the EU. With the moving of Julian Assange and GB showing their true colors, things are heating up. Have seen where queen is even thinking about moving, which in some circles would be called abdicating.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=byHxOHyKWkw

When posting, always use "pull quotes" along with link. That way if link goes down, important info is saved. Cut and past important posts to text edit. Print. Easy archive.

Use cell phone to video archive. Download to hard drive.

Me too. And I totally expected this to happen. And I totally expect it to keep happening until only the party line is in the public sphere.

But I was only just thinking the other day about how too much stuff is in the hands, so to speak, of Archive. sites. We need more people springing up creating dozens and dozens of these kinds of sites so that it isn't so easy to just strike down an entire site and the majority of saved content with it. As it stands all our eggs are in one or two baskets. That's not smart.
