Pro tip: I found the full 2019 report on the Kashmir internet blackout by digging through a backup site
When the main article got pulled here in the US, I pasted the URL into the Wayback Machine and got the whole thing from a 3 day old archive, so has anyone figured out a better way to grab stories before they get wiped?

Wait, hold on, the Wayback Machine isn't always the answer here. I've been burned by that before, stuff gets scrubbed from there too once sites send takedown requests, so a 3 day old archive isn't as safe as it looks. The real trick is saving your own copy the second you see it, like a PDF or even a screenshot, because once it's gone it can be gone everywhere.
