When someone asked the group who claimed responsibility on Twitter, they said this:
They are under attack because the archive belongs to the USA, and as we all know, this horrendous and hypocritical government supports the genocide that is being carried out by the terrorist state of “Israel”.
Later they made a long Tweet saying even more.
I’ll be fully honest, I do not get it. At all.
You’d think they’d be attacking some government website or even FAANG if they really wanted to say something.
Picking on easy targets is lame.
…eh, is IA really where it ‘hurts most’ though?
Hell, I bet most bigwig company execs would be thrilled if it went down, they’re giving the influential people of the ‘death machine’ a reason to smile.
Yeah me neither. I don’t think they understand the consequences of their own actions either. All that matters to them is “USA bad, <random pro Palestinian country> good”. They’d probably also burn down the fields in a country they import their food from.
Why would they? They’ve been mopping the floor with IA in court. I keep seeing this nonsense repeated, but there’s no reason for them to actually get their hands dirty when the courts are on their side.
Archives work against information control. “Who controls the present now controls the past”. They wouldn’t like archived versions of things get in the way of their very, very expensive narratives they are pushing, now would they?
hmm, a faux hacktivist group certainly would be an excellent and easy way for an intelligence agency to try and redirect anger. hypothetically speaking, of course.
Yeah, what kind of hacktivist group would go against Internet Archive? Not activists for good at least.

When faced with an unstoppable death machine, you don’t attack it is impervious. You savage it were it hurts most.

Probably corps

They’re not hacktivists, they’re just assholes.
*asshacks
Asstivists?
