Inside the Struggle to Preserve the World's Data
When masked gunmen smashed their way into the offices of the Crimean Centre
for Investigative Journalism, the staff knew what was coming. For years,
the centre had been a lone crusading voice exposing deep-rooted corruption
in Ukrainian government circles, defying threats of violence and attempts
to close it down. Now it was payback time as the thugs trashed the
premises, seizing computers, hard drives and confidential files. Their
objective was clear: erase the centre?s ?institutional memory? by taking
its website, containing some 16,000 pages of dedicated investigative
reporting, off the internet for good.
