The Wayback Machine will now only be able to scrape data from Reddit's homepage, according to The Verge, while access to user profiles, comments, and post detail pages will be blocked.

The Internet Archive's Wayback Machine is the latest victim of Reddit's crackdown on data access. The company has begun to place new restrictions on what the archive site will be able to access in a move that will significantly limit the Wayback Machine's ability to preserve information from Reddit.

Reddit has recently blocked The Internet Archive from archiving forum posts, replies, and personal profiles on their site. Will other social media platforms follow suit?
