Neil Gaiman was against the existence of the internet archive up until the most recent ruling against it. He’s made a turn around now that he’s apparently realized how bad this could eventually get for FF writers (due to increasingly litigious copyright restrictions being introduced) but honestly I’m really disappointed in him. He helped push the narrative that Internet Archive is stealing from authors and publishers by acting as a lending library and this turnaround of his is too little too late imo

Sources pls and thx

Also no, it's not too little too late. Unless you would rather that people never admit that they were wrong??

#I actually prefer that somebody cause something bad to happen and then go #'whoops I fucked up let me see what I can do to fix it'#I think that's a really cool and based thing to do #and I'm p glad that Neil is currently supporting the internet archive #and has taken legitimate action against the ruling #which tbh is more than either I or this anon could say
