I truly am SICK of preservationists getting maligned as nothing more than "file-swappers" that sometimes misuse/abuse copyrights, which anyone that cares about the loss of data, knows is a narrow minded, and rude way label people/look at things. Moderating terabytes of uploads would take any organization time, I.A. MUST be faster than most, and is why I have been flagging any junk I find, lately.
The internet is rapidly changing at such a rate (deleted/updated content), i immediately backup my documentation for any/all technical things hard&/or soft, before it gets taken down in favor of the new version (that I probably can't afford and won't have.)
I understand the warc (Web Archive format) is old, didn't Standford kinda have something to do with it's inception? Regardless, the Archive is still the best, and always has been, at archiving the internet (Wayback Machine) and remaining user friendly, open, and powerful/modern/quick.
