If you don't know what's going on today, govt data sets are under attack and entire sites are coming down, removing extremely important data from public access.

This is it, data folks. This is our domain!! Let's get archiving!

An employee working for an agency funded by federal grants working in HIV care just told me that their manager said the CDC website is expected to come down "in its entirey" and "to save what they might need." Targethiv.org, run by the Health Resources and Services Administration, is already down.

First post on Bluesky! w00t.

It seems the #archiving community on here is solely limited to artists mirroring their work, but no matter. I guess it keeps things organic for the time being.
