Id like to put my lab servers to work archiving US federal data thats likely to get pulled - climate and biomed data seems mostly likely. The most obvious strategy to me seems like setting up mirror torrents on academictorrents. Anyone compiling a list of at-risk data yet?
I guess they back either other up. Like archive.is is able to take archives from archive.org but the saved page reflects the original URL and the original archiving time from the wayback machine (though it also notes the URL used from wayback itself plus the time they got archived it from wayback).

Yes. This isn’t something you want your own machines to be doing if something else is already doing it.
Your argument is that a single backup is sufficient? I disagree, and I think that so would most in the selfhosted and datahoarder communities.
But then who backs up the backups?

Realize how how much they are supporting and storing.
