There have been so many instances since it's been down that I tried to access IA resources and realized they were unavailable. I'm still bitter that of all the targets a hacker could've chose, it was the IA. Couldn't have happened to a better website. I plan on upping my monthly donation as soon as I can.

Hope these hackers receive lots of negative reactions from their peers and people around them.

Some source information about the group that has claimed responsibility:

"A group known as SN_Blackmeta claimed responsibility for the attack, with a confusing antisemitic message that the archive “belongs to the USA” as if it were a government project."

Maybe they have in the web archive some webpages that were saved that they don't like?
