This was posted to my forums and I thought it was an important enough topic to deserve more attention:

What is this communities (sic) opinion on saving and potentially rehosting (breaking copyright) of RPG blogs, posts, etc. in the potential event of that contents host going down?

    Morally, the difference is for what purpose you rehost stuff. The great thing about archive.org is that it has a clear purpose of preservation. If someone does it on their homepage where they also sell other stuff, the purpose might be to increase traffic and sales, so the purpose becomes murky.
