The Internet Archive turns 20 years old next year, having archived nearly
two decades and 23 petabytes of the evolution of the World Wide Web. Yet,
surprisingly little is known about what exactly is in the Archive’s vaunted
Wayback Machine. Beyond saying it has archived more than 445 billion
webpages, the Archive has never published an inventory of the websites it
archives or the algorithms it uses to determine what to capture and when.
Given the Archive’s recent announcements of new efforts to make its web
archive accessible to scholarly research, it is critically important to
understand what precisely makes up this 445-billion-page archive and how
that composition might affect the kinds of research scholars can perform
with it.

"The problems of our economy have occurred not as an outgrowth of
laissez-faire, unbridled competition.
They have occurred under the guidance of federal agencies, and under the
umbrella of federal regulations."
Senator Ted Kennedy, in defending trucking deregulation in 1978.
