For #WebArchiveWednesday, I'm highlighting some of the ways that #webarchives have been used to study #disinformation over the past few years and bring together some of the work that @WebSciDL has done in this area. @oducs @ODUSCI /1

Examples include how #webarchives have been used to:
* examine how webpages have been changed
* corroborate or refute posted screenshots
* study archived social media posts
* investigate metadata and past behavior of particular social media accounts

This post is essentially a follow-up to @WebSciDL MS student @lesley_elis's recent post that looked at how journalists use web archives. ws-dl.blogspot.com/2022/08/2022-0…

Below are links to some of the @WebSciDL projects that I mention in my blog post. /3

Facebook "un-archives" @internetarchive links

I replied in @zittrain's thread, to see if Facebook would be fooled by a @waybackmachine version of .au news site:

abc.net.au/news/2021-02-1…

very late #WebArchiveWednesday ;-)
Facebook would not let me post the original URI, but did accept links to copies in the @waybackmachine and @archiveis

Replaying:

web.archive.org/web/2021021816…

starts ok but ends up redirecting to:

web.archive.org/web/2021021816…
