DeadURL.com

Never again!

DeadURL.com allows you to find exactly what you’re looking for with any broken link — even links to websites that have been removed forever!

How This Is Possible

Any time a web page gets put online, there are usually a few copies that get made on other sites. Sometimes there are lots. These backups allow anyone to visit a page that used to be found at a currently broken url.

Two main sites that offer working backup copies for most web pages are Google, with their caching of web pages, and the Internet Archive. The Archive aims to keep copies of every web page not kept secret by its individual owner. That’s most web pages, and that allows us to see and use old versions of any page, whether the current version works or not.

There are also mirror sites, which keep copies of individual pages and entire sites. There are lots of mirror sites out there built specifically to preserve certain sites and pages, and if you find a dead url for one of those places, a mirror site can provide the backup.

DeadURL.com gathers as many backup links as possible for each dead url, via Google cache, Archive.org, and user submissions. Every time a user previews a backup for a dead url, they influence that link’s score. The best backup links get the highest scores, and you can set your preference to automatically forward you from http://deadurl.com/SOME-DEAD-LINK to a preview of the best backup for that dead url, or straight to the best backup itself.

What is Wikileaks ?

WikiLeaks is a not-for-profit media organisation. Our goal is to bring important news and information to the public. We provide an innovative, secure and anonymous way for sources to leak information to our journalists (our electronic drop box). One of our most important activities is to publish original source material alongside our news stories so readers and historians alike can see evidence of the truth. We are a young organisation that has grown very quickly, relying on a network of dedicated volunteers around the globe. Since 2007, when the organisation was officially launched, WikiLeaks has worked to report on and publish important information. We also develop and adapt technologies to support these activities.

WikiLeaks has sustained and triumphed against legal and political attacks designed to silence our publishing organisation, our journalists and our anonymous sources. The broader principles on which our work is based are the defence of freedom of speech and media publishing, the improvement of our common historical record and the support of the rights of all people to create new history. We derive these principles from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. In particular, Article 19 inspires the work of our journalists and other volunteers. It states that everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers. We agree, and we seek to uphold this and the other Articles of the Declaration.
