Oh so it’s not a problem for anyone without an Internet Archive login?
TIL, that you can have an account for the Internet Archive. I guess I use it differently than most people, but it’s often a one-and-done use case when I visit.
You need an account to upload stuff. The Internet Archive isn’t just archiving websites, you can also upload book scans to them, rips of old floppies and discs for old software, even old TV shows and movies. For example, the entirety of the Computer Chronicles series is available for download there.
Why would Internet Archive have people’s passwords stored?

Wow. That’s cool.
If you want to borrow a digitized bok from their library you need a login.
Because of the nature of the Internet archive, I too was wondering this.
