Who are we?

We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

We are one. We are legion. And we're trying really hard not to forget.

This list will be edited as more data becomes available, particularly with regard to Data Set 9 (EDIT: NOT ANYMORE)

EDIT [2026-02-02]: After being made aware of potential CSAM in the original Data Set 9 releases and seeing confirmation in the New York Times, I will no longer support any effort to maintain links to archives of it. There is suspicion of CSAM in Data Set 10 as well. I am removing links to both archives.

Some in this thread may be upset by this action. It is right to be distrustful of a government that has not shown signs of integrity. However, I do trust journalists who hold the government accountable.

I am abandoning this project and removing any links to content that commenters here and on reddit have suggested may contain CSAM.

So I know how to do a lot of this and bring something significant insofar as an understanding of both the gravity and volume of things here. Looking through the way everything and anything that has been released has been organized, well, it's not. This isn't how an evidence production should ever look.

There is a way to best organize this and to do so how it would be expected for the presentation of a catalog of digital evidence. I'm aware of this because I've done it for years.

But almost if not maybe even more important is that while there are monsters still hidden in these documents, whether released or still held back, there is something else to consider.

Those who are involved and know who the monsters are and can never forget them. Ever.

I took an interest in this specifically because I felt a moral obligation as someone who has been personally affected in this way just not by these specific monsters. However what I do know is the very structure that allows them to roam free, unscathed, even able to sleep at night. What failed to protect those who were harmed also failed me and when I do sleep it is the nightmare that also can never be forgotten.

This resulted in learning how to spot their fuck ups because I knew what they were and had no reason to trust that it would fix itself. With that said the insight of someone who understands this through unfortunate lived experience provides something that cannot be learned and something I hope others will never be forced to.

I have msged a few people. One responded. Just trust me when I say that if you are to work collaboratively, have someone who understands the pain you are just going to be reading.

I will help where it's needed and it's needed.
