Internet Archive is back up in a provisional "read-only" state since cyberattack
As of writing, Archive.org and its Wayback Machine are still functional as described in the original Tweet, which means they are in read-only mode and (unfortunately) do not offer a direct option for saving pages. They are also a bit slower than usual, which could be attributed to recovering servers, extra DDOS prevention measures, or perhaps both.
The Internet Archive and its 916 billion saved web pages are back online
Founded in 1996, the nonprofit Internet Archive crawls the web to preserve pages that are publicly available and has captured 916 billion web pages so far. It has a staff of 150 people and also provides free access to many videos, audio files, and books (though it was recently forced to delete 500,000 books after losing a copyright case).
