We'd like to announce the launch of two new projects on the wiki:
* [[Projects:Laws|Project Laws]] aims to increase the number of articles about consumer-rights-relevant laws from around the world, so that the wiki can be a useful resource for people trying to find out what the laws are where they live, or for people looking to compare and contrast the laws of different countries;
* [[Projects:Maintain|Project Maintain]] brings together a number of the tasks that need to be done on a regular basis to keep the wiki ticking over, and points you in the right direction!
Also, remember to sign up for this month's Zoom hangout and get yourself on the mailing list for the meeting link by emailing [email protected] with the subject line 'monthly hangout'! The hangout will be at the same time as last month - on the first Sunday of the month at 20:00 UTC. If you signed up last month, you'll still get the email.

The reason is a whole bunch of internet drama but long story short, the site maintainer/owner seems to have used malicious Javascript to make all visitors to the site unwittingly participate in a DDOS against the personal website of someone they didn't like, as well as allegedly '''editing archived pages''' as a form of harassment against the same target, making archive.today no longer a reliable archive.
