Many of the photos I posted here disappeared after the Internet Archive was hacked!

[Daniel D. Teoli Jr.]

I was using the Internet Archive as an image hosting site to post photos at the forum. It allowed me to kill 2 birds with 1 stone. Archive something and participate here. The few others photo hosting sites I had used all banned me, so not many places to go. The I.A. was hacked a few weeks ago and it never came back up. Looks like someone really put the hurty ding-dong on the I.A. It is a bittersweet payback they can enjoy after they had banned me and removed over a hundred thousand of my contributions I had contributed over 6 years. I've been a volunteer archivist there for 9 years or so. One day they shut my account down and it went poof overnight. The people in Frisco did nothing for me to restore it after many requests. It was only restored by chance from a person in NYC that had some pull there. So, the I.A. can now understand what it feels like to have all your work disappear overnight.

Hi!
