Here’s what’s going on. The Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine has been hit by waves of high-volume automated traffic, and we’ve put protections in place to keep the service running.

I know I'm coming to this post rather late, but there's actually a legal consequence to this as well. So many attorneys and law firms rely upon reference to the Wayback Machine as legal proof of a website's state as of a certain date.

I really appreciate the Archive team's efforts to make the Wayback Machine more responsive, and have donated a few times to support them.Unfortunately, the restrictions have been way too strict for the last few months: from my residential IP, simply moving the mouse on the calendar for a specific URL is enough to get stuck on 429 error messages for a while; and from corporate ISPs (for example, on airport WiFi), you often can't access the WM at all.
