The 2019 Jury noted that Flash animations and applets were a mainstay of interactive web design from the late 1990s. Flash animations and interactives were created using tools supplied by the Adobe of the same name. Although Flash enabled the development of sophisticated interaction at low cost over the web, it had a chequered history in terms of browser support and has been plagued by security concerns. The 2020 Jury identified a 2020 trend toward greater risk based on the indication by Adobe that there would be a withdrawal of support to Flash Animation. The 2021 Jury noted that the discontinuation and withdrawal of support did indeed occur. Flash is no longer supported, and loss has occurred with Adobe's deprecation of Flash and lack of support in modern web browsers. For this reason, the classification moved from <em>Critically Endangered </em>to <em>Practically Extinct</em> with a 2021 trend towards greater risk given the loss of dependence on Flash, which resulted in new aggravating conditions for migration pathway, emulation pathway, source code, lack of capacity or motivation to support, no commercial interest.</p> <p>The 2023 Council agreed with the <em>Practically Extinct</em> classification and noted an increase in imminence of action required with greater inevitability of loss.</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="3"> <p><strong>2024 Interim Review</strong></p> <p>These risks remain on the same basis as before, with no significant trend towards even greater or reduced risk (‘No change’ to trend).</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="3"> <p><strong>Additional Comments</strong></p> <p>Flash represents a significant amount of the creativity of websites in the early 2000s including net-based art and cartoons. With extinction, archives will need to consider if it is possible to preserve interaction through the development of new web archiving and emulation tools and techniques. These are culturally significant artefacts or so of the web and were a gateway for many early game developers given the ease of which Flash games could be made.</p> <p>It’s important to note there are quite a number of community projects working on this, whilst the focus tends to be on Flash games there is still work around Flash animations. Projects like Flashpoint Archive do have their own workflows for getting the games/animations but have their own preservation issues. The survival of Flashpoint is reliant on a small group of people with the storage space entirely relying on one person maintaining it. Other Flash game archives exist as well, such as Flash Game Archives. The Internet Archive has a number of Flash game collections as well. There is also work being done around emulating Flash within web browsers through Ruffle which increases access to Flash games and animations.</p> <p><em>Case Studies or Examples:</em></p> <ul> <li> <p>BlueMaxima (n.d.) ‘Flashpoint Archive’.

Personalization means that the same query can produce quite different results to different users at the same time; the application of machine learning to behavioral surplus means the same may obtain different results at different points in time. That is over and above the rapid churn in the appearance of web interfaces. There is little appreciation of the implications for the use of online services and the potential for manipulations that arise. Moreover, the digital preservation community, which is historically concerned with data rather than interface, has only rudimentary tools to address this challenge. The 2021 Jury agreed but noted a trend towards greater risk due to security issues posed by hosting legacy technology software and services which have prompted disposal of content imminently without adequate review or selection. The 2022 Taskforce agreed these risks remain on the same basis as before (no change to the trend).</p> <p>The 2023 Council agreed with the <em>Practically Extinct </em>classification and noted an increase in imminence, recognizing that while the need for major efforts to prevent or reduce losses continues, it is now much more likely that loss of material has already occurred, and will continue to do so, by the time tools or techniques have been developed.</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="3"> <p><strong>2024 Interim Review</strong></p> <p>The 2024 Council agreed these risks remain on the same basis as before, with no significant trend towards even greater or reduced risk (‘No change’ to trend).</p> <p>In light of the recent changes to API services by major platforms (e.g. Twitter/X, Reddit), they recommend maintaining the entry separate from ‘Consumer Social Media Free at the Point of Use’ to highlight the risk of loss of access to underlying data. Since 2023, a number of major global platforms (such as Twitter/X and Reddit) have begun restricting researcher access to platform APIs, making API services cost-prohibitive to academic and collecting institutions, or shutting them down completely (Davidson et al., 2023, Summers, 2023). With restrictions to this method of collection, data will be (and likely has already been) lost to the institutions responsible for maintaining access to research data and heritage collections.</p> <p>While this entry focuses on interfaces and the risk of losing the display and functionality characteristics crucial to interpreting social media content, it also encompasses the multi-modal access and terms under which social media platforms make content available. While the algorithms that serve content to a user’s feed or browser-based interpretations of interfaces make a major impact on how content might be interpreted, the terms and conditions, data services, and policy frameworks around platforms also provide crucial context.</p> <p>2024 has seen increased awareness of social media as a manipulating factor in social life, such as congressional hearings in the US around social media impact on youth, pop culture books such as Cathy O’Neill’s publication <em>The Shame Machine: Who Profits in the New Age of Humiliation</em> (which includes social media amongst a host of other shame-creating industries), and a proposed warning label for teens on social media platforms from the surgeon general. New EU legislation, such as the Digital Services Act, also demonstrates wider awareness of the impact of social media and the need to hold platforms accountable through reliable records of content published by users as well as policies and service documentation.</p> <p>Though Twitter/X and Reddit, for example, still exist and user data has not disappeared at a platform level, access to that data in a way that supports computation access or archiving as scale has been shut down. Without access to data via API, research and analysis methods are severely hampered. Given the fast-paced, ephemeral nature of social media, this means research potential has already been lost and tools crucial for using social media data to support public policy and services have become obsolete.</p> <p>Additionally, the Council recommends further research as part of the next 2025 review, in particular, to highlight the particular risk of loss of legacy platform policies and T&Cs, which are required to interpret datasets or web crawls of social media at a certain point in time. This issue of lack of access to former policies has been raised in academic forums and this should be addressed more explicitly. They propose describing this issue and recommending 1) further research into existing archives of platform information and policy pages (such as in IA collections and LoC 'Business in America' collections) and 2) adding this issue as 'Aggravating Circumstances' for other entries or potentially creating a new entry (but preferably not).</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="3"> <p><strong>Additional Comments</strong></p> <p>The interfaces alone have less impact if they are gone (since many research users are interested in the extracted data). However, it's an important distinction for us to make that we could end up preserving social media data as datasets in the long run, meaning that the look and feel (which serves a different sort of purpose) will be lost. A number of social media researchers in groups like the Association of Internet Researchers (AoIR) may care more about the data, but perhaps it is worth exploring a bit more about their interest in interfaces.</p> <p>Without the interfaces and the underlying software that enables social media platforms, it will be impossible to preserve the look and feel and even meaning of a large portion of content that depends on particular functionality or interface to be accurately or authentically interpreted, including for evidential uses, artworks, design research, and historical/qualitative research. The loss of these interfaces (or lack of any indication of robust documentation by platforms) means a significant gap in the cultural heritage of many communities and even entire nations. For example, some content creators on YouTube may lose access to their content and accounts due to copyright infringement claims or reports of inappropriate content, which may or may not be supportable. The risk of loss is higher if the content is not stored anywhere else. Though some mitigation methods are available through the platform, this issue may only affect a small number of accounts.</p> <p>Some of the content/iterations of these are likely preserved to an extent within existing web archives but not as targeted collection efforts. As we've seen with MySpace and other platforms where the platform producers decide to remove content or shut down with little notice, loss may be sudden.</p> <p>Replaying social media content from 2014 through modern interfaces poses a challenge to authenticity and reliability. If no recording or documentation for legacy interfaces has been preserved, it will not be possible to recreate older interfaces. You'd think the platform owners may preserve older versions, but these copies (if they exist) are not available to research or collecting institutions, and it would be worth engaging in a conversation about making them available for scholarly projects and cultural heritage.</p> <p>Some of this information is almost certainly lost already (some through deliberate disposal). The imminence of action depends on the type of institution.</p> <p><em>See also:</em></p> <ul> <li>In the 2023 NDSA Web Archiving Survey Report, one of the major takeaways related to respondents’ concerns about ability to collect social media—in particular, Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and Reddit.

The 2019 Jury gave this entry the strongest indication of risk available. This group includes those records which may contain politically damaging or uncomfortable realities and thus be at risk of deletion and may be concealed from archival agencies whether by accident or design. The 2019 Jury also noted that the destruction of certain classes of public records is unlawful, whether or not it is deliberate.</p> <p>The 2020 Jury added the trend towards greater risk based on the ‘pivot to digital’ necessitated by the Pandemic resulting in widespread changes in workflow and in the platform for the delivery of government, with significant amounts of remote working. These changes happened rapidly, often without time to consider the preservation and record keeping implications. In those circumstances, it was reasonable to suppose the risks expanded in size as well as scope.</p> <p>The 2021 Jury agreed but found no significant increase or decrease to the trend. They added that there should be a balance between trying to preserve what has already been created using these channels and trying to educate against/prevent records from being created this way in the future. The 2022 Taskforce found no significant trend towards even greater or reduced risk.</p> <p>The 2023 Council agreed with the <em>Practically Extinct </em>classification and noted a slight decrease in the effort needed to preserve and the imminence of action required when compared to the 2021 Jury review, suggesting that overall risks remain on the same basis as before with major efforts needed but loss not entirely inevitable.</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="3"> <p><strong>2024 Interim Review</strong></p> <p>The 2024 Council agreed These risks remain on the same basis as before, with no significant trend towards even greater or reduced risk (‘No change’ to trend).</p> <p>While scores should remain as is currently, the Council recommended the entry be revisited in the next review to consider whether it is better suited under the Public Records digital species instead of Legal Data.</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="3"> <p><strong>Additional Comments</strong></p> <p>Even records created on official channels and platforms are potentially being subjected to unlawful destruction through subversion of official formal processes.</p> <p>This is a ‘small effort to fix’ in terms of the technology to export data. But loss seems likely unless there is stronger monitoring and enforcement of the policy around this.</p> <p>Agencies responsible for the public record will not be able to completely control their public servants' use of unofficial channels (but could tighten), so they need methods to obtain from unofficial channels. Very important for public accountability and transparency of the state.</p> <p>Obviously, these records should not be created using these channels in the first place. It is probably unlawful for those in public office. However, we know there has and always will be this kind of backdoor activity and pretty much always a scandal when it is revealed. The challenge is managing to collect it.</p> <p>Maybe at the time of creating this entry, the Jury was thinking of legal data examples, but at this point, in time, I think the species best belongs under "Public Records" and so should be moved there.</p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </div> <a href="/digipres/champion-digital-preservation/bit-list/practically-extinct/bitlist-non-standard-public-records" class="button">Read More</a> </div> <div class="listing"> <h3><a href="/digipres/champion-digital-preservation/bit-list/practically-extinct/bitlist-osint-older">Older Open Source Intelligence Sources</a></h3> <div class="show-for-medium-up"><h1>Older Open Source Intelligence Sources</h1> <table> <tbody> <tr> <td colspan="2"> </td> <td rowspan="2"> <img src="https://dpconline.b-cdn.net/images/DPC/Our_work/BitList/Practically_Extinct_small.jpg" alt="Practically Extinct small" width="250" height="218" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"> <p>Older open source intelligence produced, collected and analysed from publicly available social media and web content with the purpose of answering a specific intelligence question and that supports crowd-sourced investigation and fact-checking to verify or refute claims of state agencies and rebel groups in the context of historic political or military conflict.</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <p>Digital Species: <a href="/digipres/champion-digital-preservation/bit-list/legal-data">Legal Data</a></p> </td> <td class="alert-warning"> <p><strong>Trend in 2023:</strong></p> <p><strong><img src="https://dpconline.b-cdn.net/images/DPC/Our_work/BitList/2022/No_change.png" width="25" height="25" alt="No change" /> No Change</strong></p> </td> <td> <p>Consensus Decision</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <p>Added to List: 2019</p> </td> <td class="alert-warning"> <p><strong>Trend in 2024:</strong></p> <p><strong><img src="https://dpconline.b-cdn.net/images/DPC/Our_work/BitList/2022/No_change.png" width="25" height="25" alt="No change" /> No Change</strong></p> </td> <td> <p>Previously: Practically Extinct</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <p><strong>Imminence of Action</strong></p> <p>Immediate action necessary.

This entry relates in particular to materials published at the time of the ‘Arab’ spring. Social media companies had initially taken little or no action with respect to social media content in conflict zones, taking the view either that they were mere technical platforms and therefore not responsible for editorial; or that the platforms were being used largely for social good, loosening the control of the media from oppressive regimes. However, as the Arab Spring progressed, the companies came under significant pressure to monitor content with more care, in part because terrorist groups had begun using social media platforms for propaganda purposes. The social media companies responded by implementing algorithms that removed or deleted content. This had the unintended consequence of deleting or suppressing content that was being used in open source investigation for journalistic or judicial purposes and may have resulted in refutation or prosecution. The 2019 Jury recognized the duty of care that social media companies have towards their users and is in no sense seeking to have that material re-published on the open web but noted the unintended consequence for journalists and investigatory authorities from the rush to deletion, illustrating how this entry further underlines the relative fragility of all social media content. The 2021 Jury agreed with the current classification and description with no change to trend. The 2022 Taskforce also found no change to trend.</p> <p>The 2023 Council agreed with the current <em>Practically Extinct </em>classification with the overall risks remaining on the same basis as before (‘No change’ to trend).

The 2023 Council noted that the original description and scope of the entry conflated several issues and was unclear in its purpose, referring both to games that have experienced loss and older games that are still available. The 2023 change of risk classification from <em>Critically Endangered</em> to <em>Practically Extinct</em> reflects the adjusted scope as games that fall under this entry have already experienced loss, in terms of servers, the actual game and users. Efforts to keep these games ‘alive’ or in circulation are reliant on legally dubious measures such as private servers and key reselling. It was also decided to remove reference to the age of the video game in this entry given that there has been an increase in server-reliant games shutting down within a year or two of launch that are more at risk than older games that are still being sold.</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="3"> <p><strong>2024 Interim Review</strong></p> <p>The 2024 Council identified a trend towards even greater risk based on shifts in business models and increased litigation over the last year, resulting in more shutdowns which impact preservation efforts. It also raises time sensitivity for action; if there are no efforts to preserve and those existing are further shutdown, this raises the likelihood of loss.</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="3"> <p><strong>Additional Comments</strong></p> <p>The key element of this entry is that loss has already happened. Whilst there are numerous hobbyists working on preserving individual games and servers, the critical mass of users has now been lost for these games. Additionally, whilst the work being done by hobbyists is often vital to the survival of these games, the legality of these projects are in question and are often prone to shutting down without warning. Organizations like the Videogame Heritage Society provide a space to share advice and guidance on preserving video games but the sheer breadth of shut down and discontinued games means that a collaboration between hobbyists, organizations and game developers is what is required to begin solving this issue.</p> <p>It is also worth noting that Always-Online DRM is a key issue in this area as if the servers shut down where a game has this type of DRM, then even the singleplayer part of the game can no longer be played without DRM circumvention, which is not legal. Darkspore is a key example of this happening.</p> <p>A unique example to point out here around shut down MMOs is Maplestory 2, which closed its global services in May 2020, less than two years after the game received a global release. Nexon, the game’s publisher, released a number of assets including designs, concept art and illustrations on their website as well as uploaded all the music onto YouTube.
