For those in countries that censor the Internet, such as the UK where I live, this page basically says what Anna's Archive is (very superficially), shares some useful URLs to accessing the data, asks for donations, and says an "enterprise-level donation" can get you access to a SFTP server with their files on it.

Umm... I'm in the UK and I can see the page fine. Why would you expect this page to be censored?

Also in the UK and can also see it fine.

I wonder if it's blocked simply by DNS manipulation and therefore only people using the ISP DNS have issues.

It is also censored in Germany.

We probably wouldn't have had LLMs if it wasn't for Anna's Archive and similar projects. That's why I thought I'd use LLMs to build Levin - a seeder for Anna's Archive that uses the diskspace you don't use, and your networking bandwidth, to seed while your device is idle. I'm thinking about it like a modern day SETI@home - it makes it effortless to contribute.

Still a WIP, but it should be working well on Linux, Android and macOS. Give it a go if you want to support Anna's Archive.

Interesting, I have no issues accessing it in the UK. I use Vodafone broadband or cellular, both fine.

Appears that UK EE has it blocked too. Tried this morning waiting for the train in to work.

I can access the site just fine from Germany. Tried Vodafone and Congstar but I don't use their DNS servers.

In other news, Project Gutenberg not completely censored in Germany. Well done, Germany. https://cand.pglaf.org/germany/index.html

And the works that previously had lead to Project Gutenberg being unavailable from Germany IP addresses will go into public domain in 2027.

I'm a human, read it anyways and I have to say it is better intro to Anna's Archive than the one for humans.

Yes! When I learned of Anna's Archive a few years back I too was frustrated by the lack of a short explainer of how to access single files, existence of an API, etc. Now I'm envious of LLMs somehow

These folks just dumped all of Spotify. They think they did it for humans, but it really just serves the robots.

Actually they didn't release the actual files yet, and now they seemed to scrub even all mentions of the metadata torrents out of their website, because they were threatened by lawyers.
