Torching the @InternetArchive & the @WayBackMachine is akin to burning the Library of Alexandria and wiping our digital memory - at a moment when media corporations & the government want to hermetically seal us in a bubble of their propaganda. We can't let this happen.

Destroying the @InternetArchive's @WayBackMachine would be the equivalent of the burning of the Library of Alexandria - one of the worst losses of knowledge in history. Media giants are now threatening to do this. We can't let this happen. Pass it on.

Last ride 🚴‍♂️ before the #DH2025 storm. Safe travels. Don't forget to bring your ConfTool QR Code for Check-In open on your mobile phone. You can find it on "Access Your Participant Registration Details". You are 850!!! We will be 30. It's not a fair fight on check-in 😉

Travelling to Lisbon for #DH2025? The metro red line will take you from the airport to the venue in 20 minutes. The closest metro station is Campo Pequeno on yellow line. A lot of buses, and also safe taxi, uber and bolt. A map for the venue: maps.app.goo.gl/668ztup9yz22P7…
