what do you even mean by “DDoS code on archive.ph”
Could you provide a source for your claim that archive.ph is DDOSing others? I couldn’t find any information on that

Thank you.
Archive.ph would then be susceptible to DDOS attacks.
Could someone explain what is happening here? Does Firefox have a builtin protection against DDOS specifically for Archive.ph? And why does it have it, why this specific site? Is there a protection for other sites too? I’m a bit confused here why Firefox itself would DDOS the site.
When you visit archive.ph, your computer is used to DDoS a critic of archive.ph.
Where’s the evidence of this?
How?
A browser is just another network program. An add-on can do it, a program that can bypass protections can be written. Such an add-on would be used as an example to achieve that.
Tampermonkey and a custom script?
Why are you going to a site that DDoSes other sites? Is that not a dealbreaker to you?
There’s no good alternative for the service.

This is so weird. The HN comments do not fail to point out that the OP is looking to create some kind of situation. It seems someone has a personal vendetta and it isn’t archive.ph.

Edit: After reading the Mastodon comments, this is kind of dumb.
