We need to do what we can to protect the Internet Archive. Here is a petition that you can sign.

Sign the Petition

Defend the Internet Archive

This petition alone might not be enough, but everything we can throw at this counts.

Edit 11/19/2025: Since people keep reblogging this, the petition is already over, we won back on September 15th, I appreciate that everyone is so concerned about this, but there’s no need to worry about this particular issue anymore because the record labels are no longer threatening the Archive, we achieved victory in this particular issue months ago.

Everyone who signed and/or helped spread the petition, thank you.

Internet Archive’s legal fights are over, but its founder mourns what was lost

“We survived, but it wiped out the library,” Internet Archive’s founder says.

"This month, the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine archived its trillionth webpage, and the nonprofit invited its more than 1,200 library partners and 800,000 daily users to join a celebration of the moment. To honor “three decades of safeguarding the world’s online heritage,” the city of San Francisco declared October 22 to be “Internet Archive Day.” The Archive was also recently designated a federal depository library by Sen. Alex Padilla (D-Calif.), who proclaimed the organization a “perfect fit” to expand “access to federal government publications amid an increasingly digital landscape.”

The Internet Archive might sound like a thriving organization, but it only recently emerged from years of bruising copyright battles that threatened to bankrupt the beloved library project. In the end, the fight led to more than 500,000 books being removed from the Archive’s “Open Library.”

“We survived,” Internet Archive founder Brewster Kahle told Ars. “But it wiped out the Library.”

An Internet Archive spokesperson confirmed to Ars that the archive currently faces no major lawsuits and no active threats to its collections. Kahle thinks “the world became stupider” when the Open Library was gutted—but he’s moving forward with new ideas."
