Now for some good news for a change. YES Good news. The Internet Archive has archived 1 Trillion Web Pages

https://blog.archive.org/trillion/

This October, the Internet Archive will celebrate an extraordinary milestone: 1 trillion web pages preserved and available for access via the Wayback Machine.

Since 1996, the Internet Archive has worked with libraries and partners around the world to build a shared digital library of humanity’s online history: capturing websites large and small—from breaking news to forgotten personal pages—so they remain accessible for future generations.

The series of events scheduled throughout October will highlight the memories, makers, and movements that have made this achievement possible, and will look ahead to the future of web preservation as we continue building the web’s collective memory together.

Especially in these times when knowledge and information are under assault.

I love the Internet Archive, I've found it to be an invaluable resource countless times over the years.

1 trillion web pages, wow, that is amazing!

Thanks for sharing.
