Archive.is used to geoblock all Finnish IP addresses at one point because of some alleged dispute with the Finnish government. As far as I remember, he got a takedown request from a Finnish government and then had some incident at the Finnish border, saying that they were linked (as in, the company in question could order the Finnish government to harrass him).

Works now though but it gives me doubts about the management of the site.

The people that run the Pirate Bay went to prison for operating that site, despite not hosting any illegal content there themselves. Archive.is faces similar impedance mismatch with what different people and courts believe about intellectual property.

When's the last time you went to prison for something you believe in?

Tbc, I haven't, but I'm also not the one throwing shade at the site's management.

What does the Pirate Bay have to do with anything? Who went to prison here?

The point is more about what could happen when breaking laws in other countries than what did happen in this particular case.
