  This doesn’t change anything about the ownership, governance, or control of the Internet Archive. It literally just means that all official government documents go to them for archiving. This is cool and neat and raises the profile of the Internet Archive, but other than that it doesn’t really mean anything. Trump has exactly as much control over it now as he did before: none.

    Well, good. I hope it stays that way and I’ll be cautiously optimistic it’s actually a good thing. Thank you for the information.
