    Fuck.

    I really hope someone gets hold of the data and shares it on p2p or otherwise. If all this data is deleted it would be equivalent to nuking pyramids or burning Picasso paintings.

      Honestly, I’d say it would be much much worse than your examples. It would be erasing parts of history itself.

        Exactly. Losing Internet and digital history would create another dark ages for future historians. Everything we’ve done would just be gone.

        If I had more money than humanly usable I would create a project that transcribes wikipedia or whatever onto stone/metal plates so it’s not forgotten.
