      ”archive dot is” is a part of the same DDoS network of sites. Don’t use them!

        The one-world government and the CIA are loving all this FUD being spread about archive.is. No, don&#x27;t access information we don&#x27;t want you to! Because of... uh... DDOS, that&#x27;s it!

          Thanks for confirming that archive.today is indeed an intelligence operation. The information you have publicly provided is very helpful. :)

            archive.today and archive.is are alternative domains of the same website

              Look, I&#x27;m glad archive.is exists as a resource for preserving paywalled news but it wasn&#x27;t the one world government that made him DDOS some random guy and tamper with archived content.

              It was completely counter-productive too, several orders of magnitude more people learned about the blog post via the DDOS controversy than ever would have without it. And plants a seed of doubt that anything they archive could have been silently modified to satisfy a personal grievance.

                The guy archive.is supposedly targeted was trying to get the owner of archive.is killed. It&#x27;s not some random guy.
