Blocking Internet Archive: AI's Non-Solution, Web's Historical Cost

Major publishers are blocking the Internet Archive, citing concerns about AI scraping. This action, while intended to control content use by commercial AI, simultaneously erases the web's critical historical record, a resource relied upon by journalists, researchers, and courts for decades. The EFF argues that archiving and AI training for transformative purposes are often fair use, and sacrificing public digital history is a severe and irreversible mistake.
