  • The claim that archive.today is orchestrating a DDoS via CAPTCHA execution contradicts its known architecture, which relies on user agents to fetch content rather than actively injecting malicious payloads into client-side scripts. If the CAPTCHA page is indeed executing arbitrary JavaScript, this suggests a severe supply chain compromise or a misunderstanding of how the service’s proxy network functions. Can you provide the specific user-agent headers or network traces showing the origin of the traffic to distinguish between a botnet hijack and a false positive?
