Don’t let libraries die. As the future goes digital, major publishers are suing to cut off libraries’ defense of digital books from censorship. It’s time to fight back.

It looks like the internet archive is needed assistance, I just heard about this today and figured lemmy could help spread this message around

    Honestly, I’d say it would be much much worse than your examples. It would be erasing parts of history itself.

      Exactly. Losing Internet and digital history would create another dark ages for future historians. Everything we’ve done would just be gone.

      If I had more money than humanly usable I would create a project that transcribes wikipedia or whatever onto stone/metal plates so it’s not forgotten.
