Invitation to weigh in
Internet Archive
We opened a landing pad for Internet Archive from public work, not a mission paraphrase.
Internet Archive publishes citable work we could quote (Internet Archive Blogs | Updates from the Internet Archive). This briefing is a hypothesis built from those sources. Tell us if we misread the research, add papers we missed, and weigh in on Desirable Properties tied to that work.
If you represent Internet Archive, confirm the source URLs, then open the Desirable Properties tab and leave a patch idea where the property text misses what your public work already argues.
Research and policy only change the rule-set when it is linked to original sources. Help us keep this pad tied to your papers and reports, not a press-release summary.
Public packet only. Hypothesis marks stay until you confirm sources. Each Alliance member gets a different pitch so we can experiment. Your pad is https://desirableproperties.org/pad/archive (hyphens optional). Direct link to this tab: https://desirableproperties.org/pad/archive?tab=values

Candidate MPA: Declare how other layers may discover and bridge without capture
“The internet, for me, is like a forest that I’ve grown up in, and I’ve seen change over time.” Today, the Wayback Machine allows Tim to revisit some of the websites, blogs, and projects he created when he was younger.
