I'm wondering what is the motivation behind the archive.org DDoS. Is it some company (or group of companies) not wanting the Internet Archive to redistribute their work or is it someone who doesn't want their digital footprint archived?

Recreational nitrous-oxide users are worse than stoners and vapers combined. I can't think of any other recreational drug that can lead you wheelchair bound.

Of course, I'm not going to stop you from doing it, but you're an idiot if you do.
