@ShockOfRecord Seen it. Really fascinating stuff web archiving now just what archivists need to do for future researchers.

Ethical and legal issues, especially with copyright and authenticity, (including not ‘authenticating’ misinformation by archiving it) raised by all presenters as something that needs to be addressed when web archiving

Friedel Geeraert from the Belgian Royal Library now talking about archiving the Covid-19 crisis using web archives #ShockOfRecord #Archives @Friedel_Geeraer

[The Shock of the Record: Archives and Truth @ShockOfRecord]

Different approaches to archiving Covid19 conspiracy theories: archive a news aggregator (rather than give authority by formally archiving the website) or by excluding from archive and giving reason why, keeping this decision as a record.
