A mock-legal memo for the age of registrar sensitivities, platform bans, and abuse desks whose main product is plausible deniability.
Our primary threat actors are ICANN-accredited registrars who would prefer this archive did not exist. Secondary threats include: their lawyers, their DMCA bots, their friends at social media trust-and-safety desks, and the occasional search engine that decides accountability journalism is spam.
This archive runs on a Cloudflare Worker. There is no origin server. There is no database. There is no admin panel. There is nothing to hack, nothing to DDoS, and nothing to subpoena. The entire site is a JavaScript function that transforms public HTML. If this upsets you, please direct your complaint to the concept of edge computing.
If you find a security vulnerability in this archive, we genuinely want to know about it. Unlike certain registrar abuse desks, we actually read incoming reports. The bar is low, but we clear it.
A brand name appearing un-redacted in the HTML. A source URL leaking in a hover tooltip. A DMCA-triggering trademark visible in the DOM. These are the vulnerabilities that matter here. If you can find one, you will have done more quality assurance than most registrar abuse desks do in a fiscal year.
If this archive is taken down, another one will appear. And another. And another. This is not a centralised service — it is an idea with a build script. The source investigations are CC-BY-4.0. Anyone can mirror them. Everyone should.
