I don't think these assholes understand that its a VERY useful tool for archiving the internet, which helps keep powerful people accountable. We must fight to keep this tool so that journalists and activists can keep speaking truth to power.

They are the powerful people, and they know why they don't want to be kept accountable.

These assholes understand that perfectly. They represent rich and powerful people who don't like being held accountable, and who treasure the ability to keep selling you shit without you actually owning it.
