are we sure that the whole entire URL namespace has been mapped?

How would that even function, I mean, did they loop through every single permutation and see the result, or what exactly/ how would that work?

In short, yes. Since no one can make new links, it's a pre-defined space to search. They just requested every possible key, and recorded the answer, and then uploaded it to a shared database.

The pipeline code is available for review of the mechanics of http requests made if you follow the ArchiveTeam wiki links.

Beautiful. I wish I had seen this and could have helped.

they are still archiving other url shorteners https://tracker.archiveteam.org:1338/ you can participate in that
