AI scraping concerns are driving Reddit to restrict the Internet Archive to only its homepage, cutting off post and comment archives.

Reddit is limiting the Wayback Machine from indexing most of its site over concerns of unauthorized AI scraping.

The Internet Archive's Wayback Machine is the latest victim of Reddit's crackdown on data access. The company has begun to place new restrictions on what the archive site will be able to access in a move that will significantly limit the Wayback Machine's ability to preserve information from Reddit.
