I completely agree with their mission statement, and I wish there was a way to help accelerate what they are doing, how could we make multiple copies of this site so that it can never get stamped out? One problem I constantly have is that the domain gets blocked, and so I have to switch to a new domain to access the site. If we can make this resistant to any type of censorship, that would be amazing and I feel like would be an amazing way to contribute. Is there a closing software specifically made for this. It’s not really possible to clone the site without the authors help and she has stated she purposely doesn’t share the code so that the software can’t get hacked.

Torrents? Sets of data torrents with an open-source frontend?
Clearnet torrenting could put you in trouble. Perhaps torrents in I2P are more suitable for this.
