@ -1176,7 +1176,7 @@ ArchiveBox's stance is that duplication of other people's content is only ethica
In the U.S., <a href="https://guides.library.oregonstate.edu/copyright/libraries">libraries, researchers, and archivists</a> are allowed to duplicate copyrighted materials under <a href="https://libguides.ala.org/copyright/fairuse">"fair use"</a> for <a href="https://guides.cuny.edu/cunyfairuse/librarians#:~:text=One%20of%20these%20specified%20conditions,may%20be%20liable%20for%20copyright">private study, scholarship, or research</a>. Archive.org's preservation work is covered under this exemption, as they are as a non-profit providing public service, and they respond to <a href="https://cardozoaelj.com/2015/03/20/use-of-copyright-law-to-take-down-revenge-porn/">unethical content</a>/<a href="https://help.archive.org/help/rights/">DMCA</a>/<a href="https://gdpr.eu/right-to-be-forgotten/#:~:text=An%20individual%20has%20the%20right,that%20individual%20withdraws%20their%20consent.">GDPR</a> removal requests.
As long as you A. don't try to profit off pirating copyrighted content and B. have processes in place to respond to removal requests, many countries allow you to use sofware like ArchiveBox to ethically and responsibly archive any web content you can view. That being said, ArchiveBox is not liable for how you choose to operate the software. You must research your own local laws and regulations, and get proper legal council if you plan to host a public instance (start by putting your DMCA contact email in <a href="https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/wiki/Configuration#footer_info"><code>FOOTER_INFO</code></a> and changing your instance's branding using <a href="https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/wiki/Configuration#custom_templates_dir"><code>CUSTOM_TEMPLATES_DIR</code></a>).
