What we did with SUCHO to preserve Ukrainian cultural heritage during a war wasn't exactly lawful web scraping depending on your jurisdiction and how you look at it.
We need to make better arguments for reigning in AI that aren't so big on unintended consequences for important digital work.
From a recent conversation it seems unlikely the UK Web Archive will fully return, at least within a BL context. The resource allocation (not just money, but money yes) is nowhere near enough and voices are shouting for other services to be a higher priority.
Which is deeply frustrating, and risky.
