minus-squarefoggy@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·6 months agoWhat I wanna know is how companies get away with stuff like this. Getting to the bottom of a cyber attack isn’t… Impossible? It just takes resources.

Attacking the internet archive maybe has darker motives such as censorship or plainly wanting to erase inconvenient history
