Sometimes I've noticed that a seller will repurpose the product page for a previously seemingly legitimate product with good reviews to sell something entirely unrelated while benefiting from the positive reviews of the prior product.

The difference is that most of that content lasted for at least a few decades, if not centuries before being lost to time. As content on the internet is 'destroyed' if no one hosts it any more, a lot of valuable content is being lost in just a few years after being created. Archiving needs to be more widespread and better supported if the resources and culture of the internet as it has evolved over time are to be preserved for posterity.

For my relatives Facebook's not the problem, it's all the far right wing propaganda on YouTube that makes claims without backing them up with any sort of evidence. The more they watch, the more they believe it, and the less they believe evidence to the contrary.

While statements like that are needless fear mongering, any jobs they do replace in the long term are at least making the economy more efficient, in the same sense as computers did. It's unfortunate for anyone's job to become redundant, but technology shouldn't be delayed or avoided for that reason alone.

From the perspective of a piracy community, however, that's not a win.

Unless the EU makes Apple get rid of the yearly cost per installation, any app store other than Apple's is limited by the inability to have free or freemium apps, giving them a substantial disadvantage in comparison.

They need to self-host their repository if they don't want to end up in the same situation...

As long as someone backed up the repository, it can still be forked, right?
