What would be the point of extorting Brave like that?

 

[totse]

For me, I can't even get a regular IP address for archive.whatever. If I do an NSLOOKUP on those domains I only get an IPv6 address.

If I use an online lookup tool instead, I do get an IP address, but going there just gives a "hello world" page. I suspect whatever hackery the owner is doing is breaking a lot of stuff.

Reverse DNS for 37.1.202.102 points to inferno.name, a VPS / dedicated server host with DDoS protection. I wouldn't think that archive.is would be on shared webhosting (i.e., a common reason why that would happen), but even without that, it's pretty normal for some web servers to be configured so that you can only go to a certain website by its domain name, sometimes even if it's the only website on the server. But archive is using multiple domains so that's probably why they did that.

 

[Least Concern]

archive.is/md/whatever is amazing but it always bothered me that there didn't seem to be much transparency regarding who was running it and why. And it's always been a single point of failure; if it goes down (which it partially has if this Brave blocking is true), a whole chunk of internet history goes with it.

Many times I've considered a replacement which would have a FOSS web front end and use some sort of distributed file storage system like Sia or IPFS for storing the archives. That way there could be multiple front ends with access to the same archives on the back end, and if your favorite front end goes down, you can just spin up your own. Not something I have the knowledge or particularly the time to tackle myself at this point but I'd be willing to help out on such a project if it used tech I'm familiar with.

[Lurkism]

Owner of archive.is seems pretty happy brave users are angry at him, and said that brave users were 'toxic'.

Jesus Christ I just checked the GitHub page (via a Reddit link) on this issue, and they freaking paid your friend! What the hell?! Opera is run by the Chinese Communist Party, but that's fine with...

Considering how disgustingly pathetic, slovenly and insular the average furfaggot is, having your hands tied behind your back would almost make it an even fight between you and them.

I've been hearing it a number of people, both in person and online. My initial reaction was one of skepticism, thinking it sounds like fear-mongering so I'm not saying I believe it but I'm not saying that I'd completely dismiss it without getting some insight on it, though, considering how crazy this year has been and how the riots continue to escalate and will likely continue regardless of the election results. This was one video someone had shared regarding the subject:

That is certainly the face of a man whom I'd expect to give a calm and well-reasoned analysis of global events.

[discombobulate]

That explains why archive.md was complaining that my Brave browser "wasn't supported", even when I tried switching user agents. Didn't realize it was an angry retard trying to screw Brave users over.

I blocked scripts on archive.md and have no problem viewing things but I haven't archived anything since switching to Brave.

I don't know what you're doing wrong. I always have IPv6 disabled, I always get an IPv4 address.

Fuck that guy, got to open up another browser to read some archives. Not only does it not work, but it redirects you to another page so you can't simply copy the link and paste, you have to find the original link you clicked and copy that in. All of them seem to not work for Brave. .is, .fo. etc.

And no, I'm not switching to an inferior browser.

Yes, switch to Tor browser.

Edit: Apparently they initially blocked because Brave didn't fix a bug that specifically affected their site and only their site ASAP. Brave fixed it in a normal timeframe. Then they transferred the ownership of the domain to Russia, which gets flagged for fraud, losing out on tips, so they block it again.

Lol, nice meme. The issue that the Archive.today chap reported is here:

[Publishers] Transferring domain between accounts does not work · Issue #10219 · brave/brave-browser

Description Adding domains to another account deadlock them into a transition state. Brave support does not respond to emails. https://blog.archive.today/post/619753847471161344/id-love-to-send-you...

github.com

In attempt to get Brave to stop soliciting donations on his behalf that he would not be able to directly receive, he followed the following steps:

1. Add domains to an account, verify them by adding TXT records in DNS
2. Wait few weeks
3. Add domains to another account, verify them by adding TXT records in DNS (so they become invalid in the first account)
4. Wait few weeks
5. See the domains are still in transition state
6. Wait few weeks
7. Write to info@basicattentiontoken.org
8. Wait few weeks
9. Open this ticket

After months of issues, it still took a week for some dirty Hindoo working for Brave to come back to him and say BRAVE NOT ALLOW MONEY FOR RUSSIA (even though that was in conflict with Brave's actual explicit policies, which only ban people in free countries from receiving money from the browser download program, which Archive.today was never part of, not the 'regular' donations that they solicit on every single website on the internet).

If the useless trash behind Brave want to make things right, they could presumably make contact with the Archive.today fellow, bypassing their shitty tier 1 Indians, and make sure he is able to receive the money they fraudulently collected on his behalf and stop pretending to take any further money on his behalf.

The Russian has provided an excellent service to the world for many years. He does not deserve to have disgusting street-shitting fools wasting his time. You wouldn't accept that, nor did he.

There is no evidence they have done this.

Brendan Eich apparently is fine with paying this danger-haired freak a six figure salary.

But having an actual human being deal with someone who provides key internet infrastructure? Apparently, that is too much to ask. Instead. Their Indians disable the Brave token account of his friend, who volunteered to collect the fraudulently collected BAT tokens on his behalf, and steal all the money.

Please, at least put a note on the unsupported page why Brave is unsupported again, I thought this was resolved No, it hardly will be resolved. it seems that Brave is a scam project by their nature...

blog.archive.today

Aside from the Wayback Machine, http://archive.st/

Archive.st is literally unusable.

 

[hi folx]

Brave is parasitic adware. The webmaster of archive.is should be commended for discouraging its use.

Disgusting.

 

[XYZpdq]

so I never understood (and the filter here never helped), is there any difference between archive today, is, md, or any of the other dozen names that aren't archive.org?

 

[Lieutenant Rasczak]

Has anyone found an archiving service that isn't archive.vn yet? Specifically, one that isn't cucked?

 

[awoo]

I never trusted archive.md. I always advocated for archive.org which has a much better track record of not taking things down and longevity.

 

[Kosher Dill]

I don't know what you're doing wrong. I always have IPv6 disabled, I always get an IPv4 address.

It seems to be related to just what DNS server you're using. I tried a few more NSLOOKUPs on specific servers:

DNS	Provider	Works?
1.1.1.1	Cloudflare	No
8.8.8.8	Google	Yes
9.9.9.9	Quad9	No
208.67.222.123	OpenDNS	Yes
84.200.69.80	DNSWatch	Yes
8.26.56.26	Comodo	Yes
64.6.64.6	Verisign	Yes

And so on. Seems like only Cloudflare and Quad9 are banned (I use Quad9 myself)

That thing isn't paid to code, IIRC. It's paid to 'design'. I guess Brave has a slightly different color scheme in the settings vs. Chrome- that must be the 'value add', no?

I wonder if the purple hair is involved in this shitbaggery anybody has info on her so i can dig around for more ?

Brave stopped working for me months ago. It just suddenly started freezing and crashing whenever I opened it. I have no idea why.
