  Shhhhh… the corpodrones will hear you. They haven’t relinquished the copyright - they’ve been hunting Space Ghost to extinction everywhere on the internet.

  Seriously though, licensing and an aggressive anti-piracy campaign have pretty much wiped Space Ghost from most places online, and the daft motherfucker is a cultural icon. So it sure sure is great that the Internet Archive, knowing it’s days were numbered, absolutely doesn’t have a full download link for all the episodes in the lower right hand panel so you glorious bastards can do what you do best and make sure it doesn’t get locked away behind a corporate paywall or vault for the next 30 years… because that would be illegal and wrong and cost a couple of pennies to the assholes who have every writer in Hollywood out on the street striking.

  In fact, I’d say recent developments towards the centralization, sterilization and capitalization of our culture have become so extreme that subversive action is not just justified, but inevitable at this point.

  In other words, surf’s up, mateys! Time to ride the waves and sail the high seas again… Space Ghost needs our help!

    Just because an absurdist cartoon rehash from the 1990s that isn’t readily available for consumption today, you’re willing to burn down the Internet Archive because, according to you and only you, its days are numbered anyway. What a pile of lies and justifications. That’s just infantile.

      Wut?

      The internet archive lit the fire, or whomever posted the video collection did. I just found the smoke, and invited y’all around the campfire. There’s no need get snippy, Zorak.
