MS Dirty Tricks Archive Trickles Back Online

Posted by kdawson on from the light-of-day dept.

networkBoy writes with word that The Register is following up its story about the Microsoft dirty tricks archive going offline. It appears that several individuals have the pieces to the puzzle and are looking for hosting resources. From the latter article: "The 3,000 document archive from the Comes antitrust trial, which disappeared from the web abruptly when Microsoft settled the case last week, is beginning to trickle back into view. A week ago the site was placed under password protection, Microsoft withdrew its own account of events, and so-called internet 'archive' archive.org apparently also pulled its mirror."

    Seach PirateBay for a torrent called 'iowa'


    I would, but I would probably get sued by RIAA for supposedly downloading Iowa State Marching Band songs or something.

    shhh... quit confusing the conspiracy theorists with things that are logical.

    It wouldn't surprise me if a similar policy exists for sites that are put entirely behind passwords, such as the site involved here: www.iowaconsumercase.org .
