Loading ...They Are Scrubbing the Internet Right Now
Instances of censorship are growing to the point of normalization. Despite ongoing litigation and more public attention, mainstream social media has been more ferocious in recent months than ever before. Podcasters know for sure what will be instantly deleted and debate among themselves over content in gray areas. Some like Brownstone have given up on YouTube in favor of Rumble, sacrificing vast audiences if only to see their content survive to see the light of day.
The trouble on Archive.org began on October 8, 2024, when the service was suddenly hit with a massive Denial of Service attack (DDOS) that not only took down the service but introduced a level of failure that nearly took it out completely. Working around the clock, Archive.org came back as a read-only service where it stands today. However, you can only read content that was posted before the attack. The service has yet to resume any public display of mirroring of any sites on the Internet.
In other words, the only source on the entire World Wide Web that mirrors content in real time has been disabled. For the first time since the invention of the web browser itself, researchers have been robbed of the ability to compare past with future content, an action that is a staple of researchers looking into government and corporate actions.
What this means is the following: Any website can post anything today and take it down tomorrow and leave no record of what they posted unless some user somewhere happened to take a screenshot. Even then there is no way to verify its authenticity. The standard approach to know who said what and when is now gone. That is to say that the whole Internet is already being censored in real time so that during these crucial weeks, when vast swaths of the public fully expect foul play, anyone in the information industry can get away with anything and not get caught.

While citizens are being distracted by the drama of the US Election, real & significant changes are being implemented worldwide to enable the implementation of tyranny via control over what all citizens think and believe. Removing the historical “cross-checks” ensures that TPTB can never be proven to have committed the crimes now underway.
Orwell’s Ministry of Truth has reached its fruition. Imagine a world where the past can be altered, leaving no record of what was the truth only to be replaced with lies. History can literally be changed as fewer and fewer people get their information from books. Imagine digging up a book detailing some government abuse in some obscure volume that had set in motion reforms years later, then the internet’s version of that abuse has either been erased or its meaning changed. Who are you going to believe? In a generation, when kids have been raised without books, getting their information only online, history can be changed at the whim of the state and what was truth will never have existed.
