Some news source released something that got redacted based on government pressure. Archive made a snapshot of the news source. Now the state actor goes after the Archive to prevent time sensitive information from spreading. They benefit from the information not being widely available immediately.

Oh....so what got released today?

How would I know? The news source retracted their statement and archive.org is down...

Up for me. It was down a few hours tops. And I remember checking it around the time you made that post as well?
