News sites are blocking access to Internet Archive's Wayback Machine
About this episode
The Wayback Machine is a project of the Internet Archive. It sends out web crawlers to take snapshots of the internet, creating a digital library of web pages. But now, some news publications are blocking its crawlers over concerns that AI companies will access the Wayback Machine’s publicly available archive and then train their AI models with the content.
Marketplace’s Stephanie Hughes talked about this with Andrew Deck at Harvard's Nieman Lab.
