That click bait title makes it seem like the Internet Archive itself will come crumbling down. Now that I
skimmedread the article, it just seems like they are going to lose the court battle for this case. Maybe some other stuff, but I get to keep my MS-DOS abandonware downloads.They’re facing hundreds of millions in punitive damages. Fragments of their servers will be in trophy cases in copyright enforcement agencies’ lobbies.
Sounds like this would at the very least remove $20-30m in revenue (according to the article) not counting if the copyright holders decide to go after them.
I think it puts them in a precarious situation overall.
