For context, Wikileaks revealed that USAID has given nearly half-a-billion dollars to Internews Network, a government-funded NGO. Internews Network has worked with over 4,291 media outlets, producing broadcasts reaching up to 778 million people and training over 9,000 journalists.
The organization has offices in over 30 countries, including the US, London, Paris, and regional headquarters in Kiev, Bangkok, and Nairobi.
Jeanne Bourgault, who pays herself $451k a year, heads the organization and has a history with USAID. Internews Network’s website has recently removed bios of key people and board members, but records show the board being co-chaired by Democratic donors Richard J. Kessler and Simone Otus Coxe.
How have they allowed archive dot org to remain up for so long is my thinking. One of these days soon they’re going to kill it for enabling stuff like this.
guess we’ll have to ring the folks at the datahoarders back at reddit if that happens (this is a joke)

The Internet Archive is still run by Brewster Kahle, who started it with his dot-com boom wealth. So his peers are other bourgeois tech industry goons.
