On Tuesday, October 8th, the Internet Archive began experiencing a multi-approach cyberattack across several fronts, which interrupted access to our digital library.
Our main priority is keeping our archived data safe, though at the expense of service availability. As a result, we took archive.org and openlibrary.org offline over the past few days to examine and strengthen our services—the Wayback Machine is now back online in a read-only view, and our blog and Mastodon have returned. We are increasing security measures and conducting additional checks on our infrastructure to ensure our archives remain secure.
An attack on our resources is not just an attack on the Internet Archive but a blow to millions of digital learners worldwide who depend on our services. We are committed to strengthening our defenses and constantly improving our security.
We apologize for the impact this caused on you, our valued users. The support of our community is deeply appreciated, and your generosity and assistance can help us during this time. Please consider donating to support continued access to knowledge for all who seek it. We understand if you cannot contribute, but any assistance is greatly appreciated.
Thanks, The Internet Archive

I’m not going to use PayPal, because fuck PayPal.
The Globalists want to erase & censor the internet, so they can reset history according to their approved version. This will naturally mean they're the ones writing the future.
