Are there any alternatives to the Internet Archive that are built around P2P, so that everyone can contribute to hosting/sharing web archives? Seems like having all these important archives hosted by a single organization isn’t the best idea for longevity/redundancy

You are vastly misinformed Libraries do not have special rights The Internet Archive was recently and previously sued for exactly what libraries do They also share files via direct download and torrents P2P is not illegal Sharing files you don’t have the rights to is illegal I share many files from the Internet Archive via torrent from home
