The American government has been littering the internet with discarded websites since the 90s. Though purges periodically happen to clean up the waste, many of these page manage to stay live on the surface internet anyways, whether it’s through intentional archival, or just by accident. Today, we’re gonna go over some of the darker examples of these lost institutional corners of cyberspace.

"Low Tax" Looper had the makings of a great perennial candidate like Seattle's GoodSpaceGuy if he had a hair less ambition and didn't assassinate his political rival.

hmmm some of byron’s tenure sounds familiar… a democrat who turns republican to win a nomination, does a bunch of shitty stuff, and then when punished he cries political prosecution… it sounds familiar but i can’t put my finger on it

the amber alert website for my state looks like it's from the 90s, straight up. it's crazy how little the government maintains any of their websites, even important ones that get used frequently.

great video!! i just wanted to add that vertus hardiman being black was 1000% a factor in him being experimented on. unfortunately the usa has a long and disgusting history of medical racism; thinking that black people were unable to feel pain.

I used to be a government employee and worked with data and computers so a couple things:
1. Many websites were created as part of "transparency" which is why the wage information for nearly all employees is available online and as a worker I wasn't able to opt out so people could look up my full name and wage.
2. Depending on the agency/who's in charge/state etc., there might only be as few as two people that do the work and they're usually overworked with other IT issues so some pages just remain on the web and aren't maintained. I'm guessing that's the case with Tennessee. There are some places making an effort to clean up old pages but it's few and far between. It's usually done when there is a decision to have everything follow a set format and then they'll go through and find these but some fall through the cracks.
3. With the CDC (up until this current regime at least) has generally been pretty good at updating information or removing outdated items. I can't confirm, but my guess is the radiation information was likely moved under a different category like Violent Deaths (NVDRS) and the old webpage was missed.
The wayback machine is usually a good source to find old sites and it's basically what I refer to now if I need to find something online since the current "administration" is making efforts to burn it to the ground.

I had no idea of these experiments, I mean I had an idea the government would definitely pull crap like this but not that it would be public. Absolutely disgusting!! I hope all of them are burning for their demonic doings upon innocent people…
