This does not work for me.

It's a loop of captcha which never ends

This may be a DNS issue. I had the same problem with NextDNS. After switching my DNS servers to Cloud Flare DNS (1.1.1.1, 1.0.0.1), it works fine.

Switching to Cloudflare DNS solves archive.today problems? That's strange. archive.today is known for having problems with Cloudflare DNS[1]. Switching to Google DNS should solve it. (This isn't because of a bug in Cloudflare DNS, but rather that archive.today dislikes that Cloudflare DNS doesn't support EDNS.)

Disclosure: I work at Google, but not on the DNS team.

It’s not. They’ve blocked some countries entirely.

Yeah here in Finland the archive site seems to come and go on a monthly basis.

It's always DNS!

When this happens to me, it's either because I'm connected to a VPN, or I'm using Cloudflare's public DNS server.

Archive blocks VPNs. If you're on one, that could be why.

I've also found that archive.ph is significantly less accessible than archive.is despite hosting the same content. Pausing my VPN for a few minutes and then changing the .ph to .is fixed a similar captcha loop for me, though I still did need to solve a captcha for it.

I was having this problem earlier with different URLs I was searching for but the link above actually worked for me.

EasyMark · 2026-02-08T16:03:39 1770566619

are you using a VPN? that happens often to me. might be a combo of that and ublock origin. I'm guessing archive gets a ton of attacks from VPN so they probably just have rules to captcha any VPN address. I have a local proxy on rpi setup and then a container in firefox that lets me use that to quickly swap to a proxy that uses my real IP. very handy for shit like this.
