The Vanishing Culture report arrives today at a critical moment: While Internet Archive recovers from a cyberattack, it’s a reminder of how fragile our access to knowledge can be. Preserving culture & history requires resilience—and collective action.🔗 https://blog.archive.org/2024/10/30/vanishing-culture-a-report-on-our-fragile-cultural-record/

@internetarchive At various points in Chinese history, rulers came in who wanted all knowledge of previous rulers expunged. They went often to very ... extreme, let's call it ... measures to accomplish this erasure.What saved the knowledge from extinction?Essentially piracy. Copies of forbidden texts made and circulated in the underground, stored for when, inevitably, said ruler dies and the texts could be resurfaced.Let me get my pirate's hat. I've got work to do.

@internetarchive If only all members of your staff believed in the importance of preserving all culture and history, and not just preferred portions… but I digress.

@internetarchive the only strong move to prevent data and history from being lost is copying it, copying it a lot, copying it everywhere. Internet Archive and Anna's Library are critical pieces of data preservation

@internetarchive Interesting timing. I was thinking a few days ago that if the orange shitgibbon gets in, books, films, tv, audio, artefacts etc are just going to vansish from archive after archive all over America. Commonplace entertainments deemed unfitting for a fascist nation. All gone.If I was these archives I'd back up physical copies OUTSIDE US territory in other countries.
