Anna’s Archive has lost its .li domain a few hours ago, likely due to ongoing legal pressure. The .gl domain survived for now.
Edit: Looks like they added new domains.
As always, make sure to visit the Wikipedia page on Anna’s Archive to stay up to date on the latest domains. .ll was removed from the article 6 hours ago!

Centralized DNS is antithesis to a free internet.
So from my understanding, its just a self hosted root server alternative to ICANN?
That’s cool, how do I make one?
sadly not many people use those. I would if there was more adoption
It cost you nothing to add, say, OpenNIC to your system
I was trying to access fmhy.net today for annas and they didn’t have any mirrors
fuck the entertainment industry
Jesus, fuck. Thanks for posting about it.
Can they get a donation in Cuba?
I suppose, as you can donate through
internet casino tokenscrypto.
Is the .gl domain down as well? Or is my DNS messing with me? I can open the newer ones, though.
Works on my end.
I know blockchains aren’t popular in some parts, but this sort of thing is exactly what ENS is for. They could buy a domain name there that could never be “taken away” by any outside authority, to serve as an ultimate fallback.
I2P & Onion sites exist for this purpose without wasting copious amounts of power.
There are existing alternative web protocols as well.
ENS runs on Etherium which no longer uses POW, thus doesn’t waste power in the same way as eg bitcoin
also I2P and onion don’t have name systems per se, so that doesn’t actually address the problem… AA could just use an IP address or something, but they require (for human usability) well known domain names
I2P and onion still require systems for discovery. they solve different problems to name systems

That’s the website, not ENS itself. ENS is a smart contract running on Ethereum, access to it cannot be disabled without shutting down Ethereum as a whole.
