I hope in 10 years we could compare the state of the internet with today and see what else has slowly became the norm. It feels like we are moving toward a tech tyranny bit by bit. Every day we wake up and things are change a very little bit and we assume this is how it has always been or it is supposed to be.

Note that I do not defend any ill action that anyone on KF has done. What I am trying to point out is how the Internet is becoming a playground for few big tech to do as they see fit. Maybe our regulation/laws didn't catch up, or that they are inefficient, and that opens the space for tech staff/CEOs to make judgement calls and execute the judgment.

It's ignorant or dishonest on your part to equate the Internet Archive with "big tech."

  • It's ignorant or dishonest on your part to disregard the broader context in which "big tech" are increasingly calling the shots.

  • Or it can be neither. My comment was for general state of things and more particular for Cloudflare. Apologies for lack of clarity in the comment.
