Roskomnadzor again blocked the Internet archive

June 25, 2015 years it became known in that the so-called register of Lugovoy based on the requirement of the Prosecutor General's Office Roskomnadzor website page contributed the Wayback Machine (archive.org) is an automatic Internet content aggregator containing complete Internet archive since 1996.

On June 25, 2015, it became known that in the so-called Lugovoi register , based on the requirement of the Prosecutor General's Office, Roskomnadzor contributed a page to the Wayback Machine website (archive.org) under the heading "Single Jihad in Russia: Theory and Practice of Partisan Resistance". features of the Russian practice of blocking, at least for part subscribers providers turned out to be inaccessible to the entire site.

This is already the second known to us the case of site blocking. At the end of October 2014 Roskomnadzor entered archive.org into the Unified Register of Banned Sites due to one of his pages of the "Islamic State" video "Ringing swords", which was recognized by the city court of Mineralnye Vody extremist.

Given the very nature of the work of the archive, which contains more than 435 billion pages, whose server is located in San Francisco, as well as the fact that that the site works in automatic mode and does not have a technical department support, notices from Roskomnadzor with a requirement to remove dangerous content, submitted via the feedback form are unlikely to be satisfied.

Thus, Russian users suffer, who lose a very handy tool.
