it is exceptionally difficult, short of ordering physical duplicates, to obtain a significant portion of cryptome archive from cryptome.org. part of this is inherent abuse - any mirror gets serious algorithmic beatings - akin to HackingTeam mirrors perhaps, not counting the mindless cloud VM bot walkers, annoying enough. even the hidden service only mirrors got offensive proddings. remember, some of cryptome-opponents are relying on obscurity - thwarted every time some makes a mirror... for this, i am quite grateful to see the archive.org natsec section expanded with cryptome mirror! https://archive.org/details/nationalsecurityarchive thanks to all involved (esp. you, Michael :) best regards,
"Let me make this PERFECTLY CLEAR" It's not a 'mirror'. So far as I can see, it's a dump. The National Security Archive maintains a mirror @IA and you aren't going to find any dox 'in the wild' or modified, or even SUSPECTED of being modified dox on that reflector.

To be perfectly clear, archive.org/nationalsecurityarchive is NOT the national security archive from GWU. It is wholly separate, and omitted the "internet" from National Security Internet Archive (NSIA) from the identifier in the URL because of length and because NSIA is too few letters. The WWU NSArchive is great and has a lot of stuff mine doesn't, but there's plenty in NSIA you won't find in the GWU NSArchive, too. On Mon, Oct 12, 2015 at 10:36 AM, Razer <Rayzer@riseup.net> wrote:

IA is a very cool thing. But they play it very safe. So I totally don't get the idea of expecting them to host even Ctyptome-level stuff. In my experience, controversial stuff lasts maybe a few hours there.
