Latest update from @brewster.kahle.orgblog.archive.org/2024/10/18/i...

Last week, along with a DDOS attack and exposure of patron email addresses and encrypted passwords, the Internet Archive’s website javascript was defaced, leading us to bring the site down to access and improve our security.  The stored data of the Internet Archive is safe and we are working on resuming services safely. This new reality requires heightened attention to cyber security and we are responding. We apologize for the impact of these library services being unavailable. The Wayback Machine, Archive-It, scanning, and national library crawls have resumed, as well as email, blog, helpdesk, and social media communications.  Our team is working around the clock across time zones to bring other services back online. In coming days more services will resume, some starting in read-only mode as full restoration will take more time.  We’re taking a cautious, deliberate approach to rebuild and strengthen our defenses. Our priority is ensuring the Internet Archive comes online stronger and more secure. As a library community, we are seeing other cyber attacks—for instance the British Library, Seattle Public Library, Toronto Public Library, and now Calgary Public Library. We hope these attacks are not indicative of a trend. For the latest updates, please check this blog and our official social media accounts: X/Twitter, Bluesky and Mastodon. Thank you for your patience and ongoing support.

#finneganswake (43) „going ladies from Hume Street in their chairs, the bearers baited, some wandering hamalags out of the adjacent cloverfields of Mosse's Gardens, an oblate fater from Skinner's Alley, bricklayers, a fleming“… a stream of life with all contradictions William Kentridge Thick Time

a photo of a woman in a red dress, in front of a red moon-like circle, raising up a heart in front of it, a red background
a photo of a woman in a purple dress, sitting, looking to the right, a black and white with grey toned background, purple organ-like tendrils on her, there are work-like creatures surrounding her, 2 worm-like creatures flying overhead of her
a photo of a dog and lamb coming to a seated woman in a red dress, on a screen above it is a screen with the scene from another angle
a photo of the artist, she is sitting on an upside-down bucket, a red dog statue with big teeth next to her, she is smiling warmly at the viewer, her elbow on her knee , her other hand on her leg
