Not sure about normalizing recipients' emails but some are definitely aware of it because I've seen spam that asked to "reply back to defi.n.it.ely.not.shady+email@gmail.com" or so…

My guess is the sheer amount of data that archive.org has, which means: - even higher costs associated with seeding archives (egress traffic, storage iops capacity required etc) - …

> Storage is cheap My /usr is 15G already, and /var/lib/docker isn't that far off despite people's obsession with alpine images. If more people would dismiss storage as cheap it'll…
