       A $621 million suit for ~$41,000 in "damages" for archiving thousands of musical recordings that would otherwise be lost to history.This is nothing short of an effort to end the @internetarchive from major music labels and we should all be furious.https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/internet-archive-major-label-music-lawsuit-1235105273/

       @fight Why be coy about it? Why not just write fightforthefuture.org? What censorship do you think you are circumventing?http://fightforthefuture.org

       @fight @internetarchiveEfforts to stop the archiving of everything (web pages, music, books, etc) is an orchestrated effort to control & limit the spread of knowledge. An ignorant population is easier to manipulate. https://adventuresincensorship.com/blog/2021/9/29/banning-books-to-control-historyhttps://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/brief-history-book-burning-printing-press-internet-archives-180964697/https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/oct/09/us-library-system-attack-digital-licensingEx: controlling history ensured racism endures.

       @fight @internetarchive It’s all about easy money. Nothing else matters in the global corporate world.

       @fight @internetarchive Does Internet Archive have bulk torrents of stuff they have archived? I know they have webtorrents of specific items but that doesn't help much.
