Censorship has been dealt a huge blow.
http://www.archive.org has been backing up the entire Internet month by month since 1996; and it is all available by just typing in the URL of the given web page. They have 100+ terabytes of information, from 10 billion web pages. That's five times as much as the Library of Congress' 20 million books minus the pictures.
In this age of censorship and websites disappearing, this service moves beyond just being an amazing luxury; it becomes an indispensable tool for finding back-ups for valuable information.
Try it out. Type in the URL of your favorite website, and view some of the archive copies on file there.
