I'm guessing it's never come up before, because why would anyone ever DDoS the Internet Archive? They have no ideology, make no political statements, back no movements. They have no real money to extort.

I suppose the lesson here is "never underestimate the stupidity and destructive power of wannabe vigilantes."

The group says they are doing it because of ISIS material.
