I've got a fresh example of a such survivability. In February 2022 right after Russian invasion in 🇺🇦 Moscow authorities have finally closed "The Echo of Moscow" radio station. Also they have closed it's internet site & YouTube channel. They deleted *all* saved video, audio and text materials. Almost all digital history of an neutral radio station where alternative opinions were so popular - was lost. A lot of journalists were forced to immigrate.
But in one and a half years a large number of enthusiasts scattered around the world has successfully gathered most of Echo's audio and text legacy and opened free public access to it. Separate pieces of this archive were stored here and there on different network resources and on listeners' computers. It was a hard job to glue the pieces together.
This restoration has inspired many freedom-loving Russians. Believe me, there are many of them.
And I hope the common sense will be able to overcome the chaos that we are likely to encounter and put together distributed ledgers. I'm glad to see that you think the same.
