Anything you put on the Internet, stays on the Internet?

 Al Ritter

We constantly hear that phrase but is it true? Increasingly I am finding that not to be true.

Because of my constant research I have a collection of hundreds of links to pertinent information to bolster my opinions on a wide range of subjects. I’ll give you two examples.

The first is an article that I published back in 2008. The article was written by Byron York, a conservative writer who was at that time working for The National Review. I copy and pasted his entire article and also supplied a link to the original article.

We frown on that way of posting now and I have since stopped doing that but let me explain what has happened in the years following. Byron now works as chief political correspondent at the Washington Examiner.

Recently I put a link to my article written by Byron about Joe Biden’s corruptness that dates back 20 years. I carefully reread my article again, but when it got down to the link to the original article guess what?

Yup you guessed it GONE! Now had I not copied and pasted it directly, the article would be gone forever. Now days we do a page capture to secure the record for years to come.

The second link that I saved was an article written about the result of Joe Biden’s two brain surgeries. In that article both surgeons were of the same opinion that Biden had a 50/50 chance of returning to normalcy after the surgeries. That article is gone now too.

I hate to say this about the internet, but darker forces are rewriting history on the net too. It’s not like we didn’t expect it, propaganda is our government’s #1 business.

My suggestion to you is….if the link you save is important, do a page capture on it, because it could be gone in a flash tomorrow. Page capture is forever!

Here’s my article about Biden’s corruptness, make sure you click on the link at the bottom of the article:
