So two of the most atrocious products of capitalism (Sony and UMG) are acting like greedy pieces of shit? Pathetic. But nothing new.

@Czyszy Of course it's Sony and UMG. They can't be a little bit humble.

@TangoStar You could also include a link to the Internet Archive's original post about this in your News Post:
https://blog.archive.org/2025/04/17/take-action-defend-the-internet-archive/

change.org will not allow all/certain(?) VPNs to visit their site.

I love the internet archive and everything it stands for. It's so incredibly useful and the world would be worse off if it were gone.

Are the record companies STILL trying to sue the Internet Archive (and basically kill it) because *gasp* they risk losing 3 pence over a song they haven't made available to legally purchase/stream for 30 years?
If they still are, they will be removing decades of internet history and old websites that are long-gone (and 99.99% of it will likely be lost to time), and make it very difficult (if not impossible) to find old archived stuff, which would make many things lost media again...
Anyways, I've signed the petition, and I might spread the word about this!

I'm spreading awareness about this on my YouTube and Newgrounds accounts. I don't think UMG will see my posts, but I'm doing my part! (i made a simplified version on youtube, but i will write up a more complex version on NG)
