Wah wah wah, my stuff's been preserved and I dont like it.

Not to mention that I lose control over what's done with that content -- are they going to let Google train AI on it with their new partnership?

Lmao you think Google needs to go through Archive to scrape your site? Delusional.

Not to mention that I'm losing advertising revenue if someone views the site in an archive.

The mechanisms used to serve ads over the internet nowadays are nasty in a privacy sense, and a psychological manipulation sense. And you want people to be affected by them just to line your pockets? Are you also opposed to ad blockers by any chance?

I have fewer problems with archiving if the original site is gone, but to mirror and republish active content with no supported way to prevent it short of legal action is ridiculous.

And how do you suggest a site which has been wiped off the face of the internet gets archived? Maybe we need to invest in a time machine for the Internet Archive?

Sites like Wikipedia were archiving urls and then linking to the archive, effectively removing branding and blocking user engagement.

What do you mean by "engagement", exactly? Clicking on ads?

They have a history of blocking oil terminals. All it achieves is much less media coverage and a quick stop to it.

Hmmm, you complain, but yet you participate in society. Curious!

You mean like when they blockaded oil terminals and it got not nearly as much attention as this and got them swiftly whisked away?

The part where it's action targeting the oil companies? You know, like you were suggesting they do?

They literally DID. The fact you don't know about it shows why they also do their publicity stunts.

This is disgusting.

It would have been easier to just remove these restrictions for everyone.

Enumerating every user to get the vote count on every single post/comment seems too computationally expensive.
