Abstract

Web 2.0 sites designed for user-uploaded textual and audiovisual content began to grow exponentially in the 2000s, and today they have become the most important communication channels for culture and public life, beyond the sharing of private information targeted at a narrow audience. However, these platforms are even more “in present tense” than the traditional web. And this is not just about publicly published and then removed content, but about dozens of services with millions of users that have been discontinued for economic reasons, with gigabytes or terabytes of digital material disappeared overnight. Nowadays most social platforms are more optimized for mobile devices, and not archive-friendly at all, or even explicitly prevent downloading by automatic methods. This paper details the problems of their long-term preservation based on the tests carried out within the framework of the web archiving project in the National Széchényi Library, as well as international examples.
