I do, because I don't know. And one really can't know without the benefit of the long historical view. And that's not something that we have access to today. Why? Because we don't have a real time machine.

The Internet Archive is a nonprofit organization with a mission of universal access to all knowledge. We pursue that mission in a variety of ways, including archiving, as I said, much of the public web. We work toward acquiring and digitizing and preserving and organizing and making available a whole range of material that is kind of grouped into media types.

So one might be books, for example, and we digitize more than 4,000 books every day. Or television news. We archive television news, both from the United States and for other countries around the world. journal articles. We have a collection of more than 30 million publicly accessible journal articles available from scholar.archive.org.

78s, those old things on shellac, we've got hundreds of thousands of those that we have digitized. Those were donated to us by the Boston Public Library. So I could go on and on. We identify media, recording media that people have been publishing in for some period of time.

If it's digital, like born digital, then that makes life easier because we're able to then capture that material in some fashion on our hard drives and preserve it. But maybe it's analog, maybe it's paper or microfiche or microfilm or vinyl or shellac, as I said. In that case, we have to first digitize the material, in some cases using the Stoke hardware and software setups that we have developed.

And once we've digitized it, then we can preserve it and organize it and make it available. At the end of the day, this is what this is about. This is about the voices of humanity expressed in a variety of medium that in many cases are being stored and made available on a series of platforms that are inherently ephemeral. that have a history of disappearing. One of the terms is link rot.
