Wikipedia Blacklists Archive.today, Starts Removing 695,000 Archive Links
The English-language edition of Wikipedia is blacklisting Archive.today after discovering the site altered webpage snapshots to insert the name of a targeted blogger. This alteration, along with the site’s use in a DDoS attack, led to a consensus among Wikipedia editors to remove all links to Archive.today. The decision was influenced by concerns over the site’s reliability and the potential security risks it poses to users.
