I submitted it to https://archive.org/web/ and found that it and many of its connected pages are already saved there.

That's great news, Marci. What would we do w/o the Internet Archive/Wayback machine?

I doubt all the linked pages will be saved, and newer articles and info will have nowhere to go. It's a shame that this resource and so many others will fade away.

But, as you know, we can't 100% trust libraries (for paper) either but digitization like the

Digital Public Library of America is making a dent.

Panoramio (Google) RIP.

Meanwhile Apple Photos sees fit to sift through my old material and send me "updates" of pictures from 2007-08. My fault for shelling out for a MacBook, apparently.

I am less concerned about the Internet not being forever (although I find it a valid concern) and more concerned about private corporations accessing files I never put on The Cloud.

I hope they do archive the work that has been done. It is certainly true that the Internet isn't forever.

DP Review became irrelevant a long, long time ago. Product reviewers are by wrote a vital force for shaping the aspects of culture from which they forge a living. To outright accept manufacturers profit motives, which in turn shape what is made and what is not, without comment or in the case of DP Review, outright disinterest does not further justify their existence. You helped bleach the industry. Good-bye fools.

A database "gone" was my reason for posting.

Understood. It still does not lend credibility to a significantly flawed effort....sometimes one doesn't get the chance for a direct hit:):
